The monograph that understands materiality. Sheila Hicks transformed textile into architecture, fiber into force—six decades of work that redefined what art could be made from.

This book mirrors her approach: substantial pages, considered binding, the kind of object that rewards touch. Inside, installations that fill rooms, intimate studio moments, unpublished images that reveal process alongside vision.

Hicks refused boundaries. Nebraska-born, Yale-trained, Paris-based—she made wool monumental, turned weaving into radical sculpture. A woman artist who proved textiles could be as powerful as any medium.

Essential for design libraries, beautiful on any surface. Documentation and design object in one.
