About the artwork
As a sculptor, Zokaites has been weaving as a solution for sculptural skins for 15 years, continuously testing the craft’s pliancy of scale. He constructs weavings of an intimate size—tabletop maquettes with paracord—that can scale up to being 20’ long with the use of industrial discards like sunshade fabric and seatbelt webbing; and he uses the material vernacular of permanent public art, steel and polyurethane, to create durable, large-scale outdoor forms reminiscent of weavings.
The last few years have delivered many breakthroughs in the studio. His latest sculptural investigations have led to innovative looms constructions and greater a complexity in the weave pattern, creating a new formal architecture. Increased access to industrial materials and processes combined with a deeper and more dedicated study of traditional craft methodologies has yielded this newest suite of works.
