A net carries many meanings. As a textile structure made up of knotted thread and tension, they are traditionally used as a vessel for fishing, hunting, and/or creating enclosures. In its most basic form, a net is a form in which something is held, captured, carried in and/or enclosed. Whether it is holding someone’s catch of the day, goods from the local market, or providing a comfortable bed in the form of a hammock, the diamond pattern net permeates our day to day life. This project, Cast Your Net, is an ode to the net, and the various roles it plays.
