Mei-ling Hom

In the Morning

Mei-ling Hom created this circular book with pie-shaped pages and text printed on the perimeter. The inside pages contain pop-ups relating to the artist’s travels in Paris. The book was created using both silkscreen and letterpress printing techniques, and was produced at the Women’s Studio Workshop in New York.

Mei-ling Hom is based in Philadelphia and teaches at the City’s Community College. She is the recipient of a 1999 Leeway Foundation Fellowship, a 1998 Pew Fellowship in the Arts and a 1992 Lila Wallace-Reader's Digest residency in Thailand. She was recently commissioned to design a large-scale sculpture and amphitheater for The Japanese House and Garden in West Fairmount Park, Philadelphia.
