Colette Fu
Colette Fu is a Philadelphia-based artist and photographer known for creating large-scale, sculptural pop-up books that combine her photography with intricate paper engineering. Born in Princeton, New Jersey in 1969, Fu received her MFA in Fine Art Photography from the Rochester Institute of Technology in 2003 and has spent years documenting China's ethnic minorities, particularly in Yunnan Province where her mother's family originates. Her work explores themes of cultural preservation, folklore, and personal narrative through innovative three-dimensional book art, with pieces housed in major institutions including the Library of Congress, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and National Museum of Women in the Arts.Browse all performers
