Contemplation of La Mantilla 

The consumption, repossession, and transformation of La Mantilla 

Moving Image 1 & Metal Fabrication 1

In this project I aimed to explore a garments semantics along with narrative and hand craft processes. 

THE SENSORIAL EXPERIENCE OF THE OBLITERATED BOX

Metal Fabrication 1 

While this project started off as an attempt to fuse together two drastically different materials, I discovered that upon the compression of the material on the head it created a surreal sound experience when one's hands touched the metal. For the future, I'd like to find different ways to replicate the experience.
