Colette Fu.

Colette Fu @colette_fu received her MFA in Fine Art Photography from the Rochester Institute of Technology in 2003, and soon after began devising complex compositions that incorporate photography and pop-up paper engineering. Fu’s pop-up books are included in the National Museum of Women in the Arts, Library of Congress, Metropolitan Museum of Art, and many private and rare archive collections. In 2017, Fu created the world's largest pop-up book at the Philadelphia Photo Arts Center, measuring 21x14 feet, where people were invited to enter the book. Fu's numerous awards include a 2018 Meggendorfer Prize for best paper-engineered artist book; a Fulbright Research Fellowship to China; and grants from the Independence Foundation, Leeway Foundation, En Foco, Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, Puffin Foundation, and Society for Photographic Education. She has attended many fully-funded artist residencies and exhibits widely. Colette is a passionate educator and teaches pop-up and community workshops internationally.
