  We present an analysis of Hubble Space Telescope/WFPC2 images of nine nearby
galaxies in Sculptor. We derive their distances from the luminosity of the tip
of the red giant branch stars with a typical accuracy of ~ 12%. Their distances
are 4.21 Mpc (Sc22), 4.92 Mpc (DDO226), 3.94 Mpc (NGC253), 3.40 Mpc (KDG2),
3.34 Mpc (DDO6), 3.42 Mpc (ESO540-030), 4.43 Mpc (ESO245-05), 4.27 Mpc
(UGCA442), and 3.91 Mpc (NGC7793). The galaxies are concentrated in several
spatially separated loose groups around NGC300, NGC253, and NGC7793. The
Sculptor galaxy complex together with the CVn I cloud and the Local Group form
a 10 Mpc amorphous filament, apparently driven by the free Hubble flow.
