Nico Williams has a multidisciplinary, often collaborative practice that is centered around sculptural beadwork. His sculptures are sometimes highly patterned abstract geometric forms, sometimes sparkling representations of familiar objects, and always hand-woven from hundreds of glass beads. Williams is a member of Aamjiwnaang First Nation (Anishinaabe) and lives and works in Tiohtià:ke/Montréal, Canada.
