Abigail Doan is an interdisciplinary artist, curator, and writer focused on cultural and environmental preservation. Her studio's materials and objects serve as an archive of forms that can be documented and utilized in adaptable, site-specific ways.

Fiber/cloth, paper artifacts, and sculpted biological and geological specimens coexist with her photographic recordings of ideas about loss, memory, and resilience.

Her curatorial and studio work has been featured by Critical Making Lab, Dwell, Ecoartspace, the Fashion Institute of Technology’s Journal, Hyperallergic, Landviews, Moowon, Plural Magazine, Romanian Creative Week, The Centre for Sustainable Practice in the Arts, Trendtablet, and the United Nations Environment Programme, as well as in print with The New York Times, Amica Magazine (Bulgaria), HAND/EYE, Marie Claire (South Africa), and Surface Design Journal. She has also been profiled in numerous books, including Craftivity, Slow Stitch: Mindful and Contemplative Textile Art, Fiber Art Today, The LAND/an art site (retrospective publication), Green Guide for Artists, and the Earthkeepers Handbook.
