Following Pratt Institute's rich history of developing object's form through abstraction, this section is a compilation of some of my three dimensional explorations.

In 2025, I was awarded the Rowena Reed Kostellow student award, as I showed an exemplary ability to apply what I was learning through the abstraction methodology into the products which I was designing.

The convexity exercise involved creating several iterative studies in plasticine to study volume, light, and shadow. It culminated with the carving of a 50 and 10 pound block of plaster to match my intended gesture.

The chess set was an exploration into how digital tools can be used to apply the same methodology.

Ultimately, the digital work had to relate to the physical world, with a functioning prototype being made in cast plastic.
