In the fall of 1992, The Fabric Workshop and Swarthmore College collaboratively presented Mel Chin’s two-site instillation, Soil and Sky. On the top floor of our first Vine St. location, Degreee of Paradise was installed overlooking the city skyline while Swarthmore housed Landscape.
The catalogue explores six years of Mel Chin’s work leading up to and including the exhibition between The Fabric Workshop and Swarthmore College, including a foreword from FWM founder Marion “Kippy” Stroud and an essay by Thomas McEvilley.
