Now through April 2026, Philadelphia's Fabric Workshop and Museum will be home to a retrospective of Swedish multimedia artist Moki Cherry's work and life in "The Living Temple: The World of Moki Cherry." This will be in the largest collection of Cherry's work held in North America.

Known for creating with the guiding mantra "Home is stage, stage is home," Cherry made vibrant worlds using mixed material tapestries, woodwork, fabric sculpture and drawings in a career that spanned decades until she died in 2009.

The collection includes Cherry's tapestries as well as a wealth of inner life items like notebooks, collages, clothing and archived videos gathered throughout life with partner, musician Don Cherry and their children, including singer Neneh Cherry.
