The List Gallery, Swarthmore College, is pleased to present two concurrent exhibitions that celebrate the art, influence, and collaborative projects of the Philadelphia-based artist and printmaker Cindi Ettinger. The exhibition will be on view from November 5 through December 14, 2025.

Katie Baldwin is widely known for creating prints using varied techniques, including letterpress, screenprint, and mokuhanga, a traditional Japanese woodblock printing using water-based inks.

Paper Journeys will feature varied bodies of works completed between 2014 and the present, including Luoma, Yi Tiger Festival and other works from the We Are Tiger Dragon People, a series of pop-up books she began in 2008 to showcase the diversity of ethnic minority communities in Yunnan and Sichuan provinces in southwestern China. The books feature distinctive cultural traditions, including annual festivals, dance, religious practices, textile patterns, and narrative traditions.  

This exhibition highlights concerns explored by East Asian artists from the early modern period to the twentieth century. Themes depicted include travel and its transformations, the dynamics of the natural world, performance and gendered practices, and the importance of diverse narrative forms, including poems, commentaries, folktales, and legends. Together, the works encourage viewers to embark on imaginative journeys that offer space for reverie, repose, and reflection. They also offer opportunities to think critically about the way societies construct and aestheticize class and gender.
