Sheila Hicks: A Little Bit of a Lot of Things
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 Inside, installations that fill rooms, intimate studio moments, unpublished images that reveal process alongside vision.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.

We are lifelong bibliophiles. Shelves filled with books line our studio walls and more are stacked on every surface. We admire their design, scrutinize their typography, fetishize their paper and analyze their binding. We read them for research, for inspiration, for the sheer pleasure of exploring new worlds of thought and experience.
We have curated a selection of books to offer our audience, based on our interests and yours. Most of our books are limited editions or out of print, they are seldom available in the US, and not available on Amazon.
Books are final sale. Once the shrinkwrap is off, a book can't be sold again as new, so we're unable to take it back or exchange it.
