Sheila Hicks:Title: Escalade Beyond Chromatic Lands
|
Artist: Sheila Hicks
Medium: dyed cotton and linen Date: 2017 About: American fiber artist originally trained as a painter who creates objects and large scale installations made of yarn, thread, rope, and fibers. Her approach to process is similarly open, challenging the notion that weaving’s warp and weft must follow a grid, wrapping memorable objects in fiber, and even using her materials to puncture ceilings. |

Janet Echelman- Fiber Artist- Janet Echelman sculpts at the scale of buildings and city blocks. Echelman’s work defies categorization, as it intersects Sculpture, Architecture, Urban Design, Material Science, Structural & Aeronautical Engineering, and Computer Science. Echelman’s art transforms with wind and light, and shifts from being “an object you look at, into an experience you can get lost in”.
