Medea. 2023
For this design I wanted to look at the story of Medea through a Cyberfeminist lens by examining the dichotomies between men and women, their breakdowns, and focusing on Medea’s journey of becoming monstrous to claim her own self-actualization; visualized by the removal of layers to reveal her raw viscera and metalic elements beneath.
Earworm. 2023
Earworm is the journey of music’s effects on the individual, as well as on the greater population through pop culture. The show then becomes a brightly colored and untidy declaration of independence from our social injustices, constraints and silence. Furthermore, it is a declaration that is easily accessible and relatable.
I sought to emphasis the relatability of the characters as well as show off their inner-selves through their song counterparts.
Abhijnanashakuntalam. 2023
My initial instinct when approaching Abhijnanasakuntalam was to retell this as a story celebrating queer love. I was drawn to many art nouveau paintings and styles early on in my research and I think that is because its excess and decadence reflects the self-actualization of queer culture. Nature and the seasons also became important to my storytelling as well.
