Alison Jacques presents ‘Sheila Hicks: Infinite Potential’, the inaugural exhibition of their new gallery at 22 Cork Street, Mayfair.
Advocate and pioneer, internationally acclaimed artist Sheila Hicks (b.1934 Hastings, Nebraska; lives and works in Paris since 1964) has collaborated with Alison Jacques since 2012.
A life journey of working and wandering, deviations from pre-planned paths, Hicks’ thirst and curiosity for innovation and adventure enables her to continue to elevate our perception of humble materials as she places them centre stage. By introducing and transforming the use of new materials, such as banana fibre, stainless steel and pigmented acrylic, Hicks continues to explore the joy and potential of colour while expanding our experience of the possibilities of sculpture.
For ‘Infinite Potential’, Sheila Hicks will exhibit different series of new work which make up her extensive vocabulary. For the first time in London, Hicks will create an installation of Talking Sticks, wall-based batons made from bamboo and multicoloured pigmented fibre placed as if in conversation with each other.
