Carpets, reliefs, sculptures, installations - the catalogue provides an overview of the works of Sheila Hicks, one of the most influential contemporary textile artists, from 1955 to the present day.
Sheila Hicks' unique oeuvre unfolds in the interplay between material, colour and space: In her wall works, tapestries, reliefs, sculptures, and installations, the seemingly infinite possibilities of these three dimensions unfurl. "What can you do with thread?" is the question that the artist has tirelessly explored since studying with Josef Albers in the 1950s. Throughout her career, she has explored a wide spectrum of techniques that constantly challenge and surprise our perception and our concepts of art and textile, colour and structure, work, and space.
