Typographic Bugs
This typography series was a project from Type 1 at Nazareth University. Using just Snell Roundhand and Playfair Display and with minimal form editing, I chose and modeled these four insects.
No Evil Series
I took metalsmithing as an extracurricular in my final semester of college. I utilized the 3-project semester to make this series based on the saying “See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.” Each piece is made of copper and alternative materials consisting of lace, fake flowers, and beads.
It’s a series heavily reliant on the traditional Christian/catholic/etc. symbolism of wings as symbols of angels and purity. I have always found issue with the use of religion to justify ignorance/hate or to ignore problems and wanted to represent that with this series. I have a personal history tied to this concept, but the greater idea is the hundreds and thousands of people were wronged by the church in some way, shape, or form.
