Embodied Form focuses on the physicality of communication and starts with cuneiform, inspired by the curiosity that comes from not being able to decode the script.

Using digital interaction, I collaborated with peers to trace and perform cuneiform characters through bodily gestures, exploring how movement and language connect. Some gestures could never fully capture the forms, and this limitation reflects the challenge of reading a written system, suggesting the qualities of an asemic writing system where meaning is open and flexible.

Atlas is a collaborative publication by RISD Graduate Graphic Design students that began as a response to the question, Who am I? Each student explored their own interests, values, and thoughts through one of the twelve Labors of Hercules, used as shared themes and key concepts.

My page, On my way, is composed of recurring patterns found in my everyday life—repeated shadows, distinctive structures, and small fragments in my surroundings that draw my attention. I see these fragments as indirectly revealing who I am in the present, leading me to imagine what form the patterns of my life, shaped by the present moment, might take.    

For Reference Only is a RISD MFA Biennial exhibition that explores how graphic design is perceived and engaged with by the public from a designer’s perspective.  While designers meticulously craft typefaces, forms, and details, most designs are often merely skimmed. This exhibition repurposes that social role of design to offer aesthetic enjoyment and create an interactive experience for the audience.

As a member of the brand identity team, I contributed to the motion team, focusing on experimenting with and implementing motion that aligns with the exhibition’s identity.
