In her art work Hair Net Geometry Jytte Hoy uses the ordinary, almost invisible object of the
hairnet. Following a rectangular grid on the wall, the fine mesh hairnets are being stretched to
maximum capacity. They result in a great variety of geometric shapes reminiscent of delicate
drawings. Like many other works by Jytte Hoy they combine sensitivity and humour in the use of
everyday objects and play with ideas of the Concrete Art movement. Hair Net Geometry is the
first publication dedicated to these filigree and unusual small sculptures, that have been exhibited
as large wall installation in institutions such as ISCP New York. The book is accompanied by a
real hairnet and an instruction to create a Hair Net Geometry. With an essay by art critic and
curator Maria Kjaer Themsen.
