Fat Fringe at the Fix with de LaB

This month, de Lab heads to the brand new, South Park-adjacent Fix Gallery for drinks and high jinx beneath a giant, die-cut paper canopy designed by the artful (if not sliced) hands of paper enthusiasts and experimentalists. Join us for the opening of Fat Fringe at the Fix, a collaborative project that explores large scale, high volume paper cutting. Over the past two weekends, Layer and Materials & Applications have organized legions of paper enthusiasts to build the free form canopy that is the Fat Fringe. Volunteers have successfully transformed sheets of paper into 3D structures that defy description. Drawing inspiration everything from 80’s hairstyles to anti-Cartesian free form logic, the resulting structure is a testament to imagination and experimentation. For those who want to add their own designs to the Fat Fringe, there is one more public workshop this weekend at the Fix project space.
