McQueen’s explorations have propelled him to the forefront of those challenging the established boundaries between craft and art. His relentless investigations have not only redefined the concept of a basket but also ignited a revolution in the field. By delving into themes of containment, isolation, security, control, and the intricate interplay between humans and nature, McQueen has achieved a remarkable feat.
Through his ingenious use of raw materials such as bark, twigs, vines, burrs, and other elements sourced from the natural world, as well as unconventional materials like waxed linen and industrial plastic ties, McQueen weaves together self-taught or inventive patterns that give birth to extraordinary, one-of-a-kind structures. In doing so, he elevates the allure and fascination surrounding his creations, captivating audiences with his unparalleled originality.
