Woven Thread – A Multimedia Dark Fantasy Novella
Woven Thread – A Multimedia Dark Fantasy Novella
“Woven Thread is a multimedia dark fantasy novella stemming from the Norns of Norse Mythology. Under this belief, it is said that each creature born into the world is given a thread of destiny that is woven into creation. Limerick, a wendigo-like forest druid, will stop at nothing to harness the powers of these threads. Using dramatizations of my own phobias, Woven Thread spins first-person tales along the many interconnecting lives that are cut short along Limerick’s rise to power. Fear is the easiest manipulator, after all. Compiled in a hand-crafted leather spell book, Limerick’s story, and the story of those unfortunate enough to cross paths with him, continue indefinitely with each new victim’s lifelines added to his collection.”

Operation Penrose – Interactive Web Experience
“Math and art seem to be worlds apart at first, but really, both are just ways of interpreting the universe we live in. As a double major in Creative Media and Applied Mathematics, the intersection of logic and creativity is a very relevant idea to me. With this piece, I am focusing on how math and art can be used in tandem. I was inspired by Sir Roger Penrose, a British mathematician who won a Nobel Prize for his work with black holes, as well as discovered a set of mathematically interesting tiles. Penrose tiles, as they’re known, are aperiodic, meaning that the pattern they form never completely repeats itself.”

Everlong – Mixed Media Doll
“My artwork as a whole often centers around mixed-media, and I hardly ever create something only using one medium, method, or material. I wanted to exemplify that process with this project, highlighting the layers of material and stitching rather than hiding them, because to me the process is just as important as the finished project.” // “This is a project that I have been yearning to execute for years, and it’s exciting to realize that I finally have the skills and opportunity to do so. I put together the little bits and pieces of inspiration and ideas I’ve gathered over the years, drawing heavily from elements of nature, grunge style and art and the DIY scene that embraces traditional and “rough” artwork.”
“Now that I’ve gotten to experiment with and learn about the process and grow my skills, doll making is something I’m excited to continue to pursue in the near future, and I hope to create a group of dolls that share the same stylistic elements that I’ve highlighted in this project.”

TOUGH COOKIE / крепкий орешек – Painting
“I like to work in words and visuals, being both a writer and visual artist, I also like dealing with languages different from where I live because it represents parts of myself in ways English words cannot. Latin for my religious experiences, French for my interest in it, and Russian for my origins. I hope that people who view my work see that everyone struggles with complex mental states – not just sadness or happiness – oftentimes it can be a mix of emotions and that’s okay.”

One selection from a series of paper collages. “This project was a really important step for me to develop a stronger grasp of my artistic and design style. I was especially interested in exploring interior design and stylizing rooms, with these pieces. I’m intending to pursue both art and interior design as a career, and being able to implement these interests in the same project has really helped me better understand my methodology in the creative process.”
