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 Inside, installations that fill rooms, intimate studio moments, unpublished images that reveal process alongside vision.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.

Brian ★★★★★

I’ve been flipping through this for days and the way each page captures the tactile weave of her fiber works is mesmerizing. The deep dive into her architectural pieces makes you see textiles as structural art.

Emma ★★★★★

The cloth cover has a woven texture that perfectly hints at the tactile world inside. Seeing her thread-based architectural drawings reproduced at full-page scale completely changed how I think about fiber art.

Joseph ★★★★★

The way this monograph traces her shift from weaving small-scale textile works to massive architectural installations gives a real sense of her evolving vision. I especially love the detailed spreads showing how she layered fibers to create those dense, almost sculptural forms.
