Project design of a restored mixed-use urban art center. Using recycled building materials from construction and tear down sites, this project incorporates reclaimed wood, repurposed brick, timbercrete, rammed earth, and ferrock. The use of these sustainable materials allows for low carbon dioxide emission during construction and after completion.

The reinvention of this space serves as an industrial market to restauranters and artisans. The structure’s large, open floorplan invites interaction and collaboration while allowing visitors the opportunity to travel between the cohesive areas. The interior will host upcycled textiles and repurposed furniture as décor.

SERIES - Veins

Through the ideology of Biophilia, a human desire to interact with nature, this series investigates humanity’s innate biological need to be interconnected to the natural world through form, structure, and aesthetic function.

In identifying patterns in nature and seeing them represented on larger scales, I created a visual exploration of how the built environment mimics natural systems through fractal repetition.

Categorized into four main parts; pulmonary, systemic, superficial, and deep, veins circulate blood to provide nutrients to the body. In this respect, my pieces abstract basic structures found within nature and within ourselves, stripping them to their most fundamental level and augmented to replicate biomorphic imagery.

Using a skeleton leaf and a map of St. Petersburg, Florida, this piece connects natural vs. artificial structures.

Starting from the center, my work uses sensory neurons to connect Washington state’s river basin (right) to Germany’s major roadways (left).

Data collected from GIS satellite images.

In my undergraduate class, Environment Politics and Policy, we used the college’s surrounding area to discuss environmental policy/green initiatives, community resource needs, and the impacts of urban development on the local communities.

Inspired by topographical maps, I used data collected from the United States Census Bureau to create Beneath, a unique minimalist perspective on race representation for Pinellas County, Florida. Full piece is featured on the next page.

In this project I first give precedence to minority races in areas that had higher density populations of people who identified as White. Starting with the most marginalized groups, I expanded outwards to include the six main categories used for the most recent census (shown in the table below).

This project explores visual expressionism on systemic racial issues.

Specifically, it highlights redlined neighborhoods impacted by gentrification.

THESIS SHOWCASE Inspired by Guatemala’s traditional observed holy week Semana Santa, my senior thesis project Las Flores de la Vida explored the fragility and celebration of life through portrait study and the iconography of the native floral arrangements used in these religious ceremonies.

My mixed media portraits are modern depictions of female figures presented in biblical text and celebrated during the holy festivities. Surrounded by customary bouquets, my work pays homage to the strength found in femininity. Included in this series is a self-portrait, featured on the left on the following page.

This installation was designed after Alfombras used in the Holy Week. Traditionally, these are carpets made from floral arrangements, fruit and vegetable offerings, and colored sawdust.

This installation piece was made from living flowers that were handpicked or hand cut. Throughout the duration of the showcase as the flowers withered their fallen petals collected beneath the hung carpet.

SKETCH STUDIES

These studies include architectural structures from my community, abroad travels, and course assignments.

Mediums include graphite, pen, and ink.

These drawings were practice exercises to explore different drawing techniques and style development. I used a range of graphite and charcoal materials. My technique shifts between realistic detail to expressive pressurized strokes .

Live models, figure drawings, and personal and public portrait photography were used as references for creating these portraits.

GRAPHITE DRAWINGS

My work is centered around essence and identity, exploring what fundamental properties make up the whole of its counterpart.

Stripping photography to its basic level, the constraints of monochrome allow me to capture the everchanging, contingent emotions of a person’s soul. While fleeting, these photographs are tangible expressions of the movement and range of emotion we contain within our being.

On a larger scale, my images capture the ethos of places that have inspired me. In the series on the following page, I focus the viewers’ attention on a specific trait shared across these communities to create a cohesive starting point. Through the lens of public transit I incorporate the cultures and identities of the spaces these systems travel through.
