Hugh Scott-Douglas

Transaction Record

2014

Transaction Record by Hugh Scott-Douglas is a dye sublimation print on linen that merges industrial and organic materials, embedding digitally transferred imagery into the woven textile surface. The work explores the intersection of technology and materiality, as the heat-transfer process fuses synthetic dye into the natural fabric, leaving traces of information or data-like forms embedded within the cloth. The result is an object that exists between image and textile, raising questions about the nature of records, value, and the physical encoding of digital processes.
