Mel Chin: RECAP

The RECAP exhibition kicks off the Charlotte Fundred Initiative, one of the main projects developed during Chin's residency. Developed as a model for the national Fundred project, the Charlotte Fundred Initiative is a multi-tiered plan for creating awareness about lead poisoning and promoting participation in the Fundred Dollar Bill Project as part of the solution. In addition to the Fundred project, RECAP also poignantly captures how Chin, as a visual artist inspired by political, cultural, and social circumstances, sees no limits to his media so long as they are the appropriate vehicle for the conveyance of his ideas. RECAP was exhibited at McColl Center from June 28 to August 17, 2013.
