Sheila Hicks: A Little Bit of a Lot of Things

$70.00

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 Inside, installations that fill rooms, intimate studio moments, unpublished images that reveal process alongside vision.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

These carefully chosen and crafted pieces represent a considered mix of the esoteric and the highly pragmatic. Many of these simple things reflect the hand of the artisan or the quiet genius of the inventor. They are useful in ways that are difficult to quantify but, if pressed, we would say they make life a little more efficient and a lot more beautiful.

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. 

All physical books are final sale: non-refundable and non-exchangeable. (Book & library accessories such as bookstands and book marks are covered by our normal return policy.)

We would be great together -
