PROJECT

atrium sculpture

Showpiece installation designed for the entryway of a hotel.

The client required a prestige art-feature that could functionally partition the hotel’s main atrium, while still maintaining visibility between both sides of the space. Representing the property’s focus on fashion design and Haute Couture, the installation proposed a curving glass sculpture arrangement featuring deconstructed garment patterns, each laser-etched at different depths in the center of the artwork.

The volume of suspended geometries promised a mesmerizing visual experience – simultaneously solid and ethereal – and could transform the ambiance of the atrium through a variety of changes in its internal lighting scheme.  

The project is pending.

PROJECT

Series for corporate boardroom

A collection of four artworks exploring the subject of “perspective.” 

Inspired by the term “The Good Book,” the artworks depict sculptures of sacred books from a variety of combined perspectives. As a result, ghostly new objects emerge, suggesting at once an impression of form and motion. 

The series considers the element of variability in our assumptions; regardless of how set in stone an idea may be regarded, the contour of all ideas, including those of “guiding principles,” is ultimately shaped by a continuity of transformation. Nevertheless, amidst the haze of different perspectives that surrounds our most important beliefs, a type of coherence also exists, offering ground on which to moor our pursuit of a broader understanding. 

PROJECT

corporate meeting room

Looking at the Activity of Looking: Pictures of People Looking at Pictures.

This playful concept was developed to enliven the atmosphere of a meeting room and social working space. Inspired by the domain of surveillance psychology, the series attempts to subvert the authoritarian dimensions of the “watchful-eye effect” to encourage a positive, pro-social mindset through reminders of inquisitive and appreciative observation. 

Photographed at the Uffizi Gallery, the small collection creates a mini-gallery for the recreational and cultural gaze; little digital and optical devices, painted and sculpted representations, and many excited pairs of human eyes, all seemingly peering and wondering.
