INSTALLATIONS

Experimentation

Through an iterative design process, I’ve worked through a series of objects that inform one another. With no set goal in mind, I can learn through mistakes and explore current ideas through maquettes.

Geometric architectural models made from wood and white fabric displayed on a surface, featuring various shapes and sizes connected by dowels and joints.

Carriers of the Everyday

Exhibition developed to showcase the work of over a year’s research. Converted one of the spaces in TMU’s architecture building to be occupied for a week after completing the every object, drawing, and model shown.

Hold Tight

A part of UMBRA’s ‘Surface Impressions’ design competition and group exhibition where artists were invited to design an object using UMBRA’s new proprietary recycled leather product. ‘Hold Tight’ is designed as a scalable object which uses the leather’s strength in tension to create a container.
