statement
I explored how geometric shapes can be combined to represent or create strength in the world. Shapes can be used as symbolic accessories, as well as in architectural structures. Geometric shapes allowed me an opportunity to express a connection between aesthetics, symbolism, and functionality.
Process Work
This piece was inspired by the Egyptian pyramids and Djed pillars which represent stability
