ARTISTIC EXPLORATIONS

Beyond interior design, my creative work spans visual art and sculptural projects. I find inspiration in the interaction between materials and space, always seeking to craft pieces that evoke emotion and invite exploration.

PERSPECTIVE EXPLORATIONS

One-Point Perspective Sketch Alcohol marker, pen, and color pencil on sketch paper

Fall 2023

One-Point Perspective Sketch Alcohol marker and pen on sketch paper

MIX and MATCH MEDIUM: Multi-Media | Ceramics | Epoxy | Electrical | Plaster PROGRAM: Hand - Made PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Through the use of the mold making process I was able to create a Mr. Potato Head inspired lamp. Creating a piece from start to finish allows me to see the process through. Having the skills to fabricate a functional piece and be able to see the piece from a 2-D sketch into a 3-D object will allow for me to create designs in the future.

Spring 2023

VESSEL and CONTAINMENT MEDIUM: Multi-Media | Ceramics | Plaster | Faux Flowers PROGRAM: RhinoCAD | Hand - Made PROJECT DESCRIPTION: This project explores the transformation of organic forms into functional vessels through digital and traditional fabrication methods. Using RhinoCAD, I designed a 3D model of a mushroom and brought it to life through 3D printing. This print became the basis for a plaster mold, allowing me to replicate the form into a series of bud vases. Each piece retains the natural inspiration of the mushroom while embracing variations in texture and finish, blending precision technology with handcrafted processes to create sculptural yet functional vessels.
