^{Center for Public Secrets: TULSA VOTES 2024}

Served as Creative Director, Exhibition Designer, and Researcher for an exhibit about voter education for the Center for Public Secrets in Tulsa, OK.

While designing, it was crucial to keep all elements nonpartisan. Candidate photos appear solid black and white from a distance but convert into halftone the closer one looks, allowing visitors to focus on candidate bios.

To bring in a tactile element, I built a replica of a voting booth to be placed near the exhibit entrance. It was used to hold copies of a voting information handout, which I also designed.

^{GOLDSMITH / SMITH}

Proposed exhibit for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, OH that tells the story of the decades long friendship between creative Patti Smith and photographer Lynn Goldsmith.

First image contains process sketches and inspirations.

^{SCENTED MEMORIES}

Interactive pop-up to be installed in a parking lot where visitors would be asked to select a test tube containing the scent and memory of a stranger.

^{ARCHITECTURE AS SCULPTURE}

Formed steel beams have been regularly spaced to create bound and unbound spaces within this occupiable object space.

Visitors would be asked to interact with the objects/sculptures by looking through the spaces left between beams and by walking in, out, and around the forms themselves.

^{CONNECTIVITY THROUGH OVERLAP}

Proposed community art center in Chicago, IL. Designed with the area’s historic New Bauhaus movement ideology in mind, and creating a sense of community through a series of overlaps.

Overlaps serve as gathering spaces on every floor. They connect all of the studios. Transparent double height spaces connect visitors to spaces below. The form of the building creates overlapping areas of exterior space.

^{INHABITING THE WALL}

Reading nook designed for a proposed library to face North on E Center St in Fayetteville, AR.

First slide contains study models where I began exploring configurations for the nook. Second slide contains a section perspective drawing and final model photos. It was designed to accommodate the human body and provide natural comfort for long-term reading.
