[Today's Inspiration] Sheila Hicks is a contemporary American artist known for her innovative use of weaving and sculptural installations. Ranging from small wall hangings that the artist refers to as minimes, to enormous site-specific works, Hicks’s works blur the distinction between fine art and craft. ⁠⁠“Textile had been relegated to a secondary role in our society, to a material that was considered either functional or decorative,” she explained. “I wanted to give it another status and show what an artist can do with these incredible materials." ⁠.⁠.⠀⁠.⠀⁠#valerydemure #jewellery #fashionjewelry #finejewellery #contemporarydesign #jewelry #luxury #objetdemotion #handmade #instagood #designerjewellery #fashionjewellery #jewellerycollector #jewel #jewels #artisan #craftsmanship#textileartist#weaving#femaleartist#sheilahicks
