Tapestry artist Sheila Held started weaving in the early 1970s, beginning with fabric production for garments. A decade later, she transitioned her practice to weaving tapestries and “innovated a technical approach to the floor loom, resulting in a unique and visionary style.” Her current work engages themes of the humanities, magic, science, and nature, both explicitly and implicitly. “I am particularly interested in releasing my artworks into the lives of their own in which relationships with their viewers are formed independent of my conscious manipulation,” she says.
