(Content Strategy | Creative Direction | Project Management | Asset/Brand Design) Complete brand messaging, strategy and website re-development for the non-profit of an award-winning author required an  in-depth knowledge of their thought and audience.

During this decade of deep-fakes and media skepticism, seeing is not believing. Instead, for today’s cynics and what-aboutists, it’s typically the opposite: representation alone inspires doubt about whatever’s represented.”

(Art Direction | Curation | Live Programming | Asset Design) “By drawing out familiar Cubist shapes and Kandinsky’s pure abstractions into the space of the room—around and in-front of the canvas—Ed’s metal collages and Linda’s unassertive clay triptych’s shed soft light on hard lines, transfiguring old threatening forms in affable silhouettes who prefer gin martinis to lingering with our inhumanity.”

Throughout the collection, texts and images are exposed to various deconstructions revealing their essential instabilities.”

What can human culture learn from the resilience of material products?”

“Like Home Movies, ‘history’ itself is increasingly improvised by its actors, spilling forward entropically. It is written for us by retro-script, and adjudicated by embattled media networks whose narratives are validated by the accumulation of audiences.”

(Art Direction | Project Management | Resource Solutions | Preservation) “An aesthetic exercise in space, this room is a live-in piece which evokes the soft memories of delicate fabrics and caretakers. A collage of generational and cultural materials, the space delicately suspends assorted ideas—complimentary and juxtaposed—in tension for the occupants.”

(Editorial Direction | Publication Management | Creative Writing | Digital/UI Design) The Terminal Post is a digital zine about the internet, it’s culture and our experience of it. Cold aesthetics with a twist of surrealism, it makes deeper sense of how the internet has affected our lives, society and consciousness. It’s 100% commodity free, influence free, social media free.

(Art Direction | Project Management | Resource Solutions | Preservation) “Designed as a servant’s quarters, this room is dedicated to workers across the ages and their many faces, domestic, corporate or otherwise.”
