Joan Truckenbrod’s woven works explore hidden systems of connectivity, from fungal networks and sound patterns to the structures underpinning natural phenomena. Combining digital Jacquard weaving with hand-dyed fibres, metallic threads and sculptural interventions, her practice reveals intricate relationships between technology and ecology. Shaped Charge (2025) is a weaving featuring imagery from a digital painting made by Truckenbrod and a video still of the geometry inside soap bubbles. The combination of silk, paper, fishing line, steel and copper threads allows for the structure of the piece to be malleable and sculpted by hand by the artist into new shapes.
