Public Art & Architectural Commissions

Integrating Monumental Physical Forms, Digital Engineering, and Augmented Reality.

"My public practice lives at the intersection of cultural memory and advanced fabrication. By utilizing a digital-first workflow—combining structural 3D modeling, photogrammetry, and interactive technology—I translate complex historical narratives, community identities, and the African American diaspora into durable, weather-resistant public monuments. Through my signature visual language, Dazzel, I use high-contrast optical disruption to actively engage public spaces, challenging how viewers perceive form, history, and environment."

Modular Public Installations

Materials & Durability: Large-format industrial FDM 3D printing, weather-resistant ASA filament, internal structural PVC and steel reinforcement, automotive-grade UV-protective clear coat.

Project Overview: Engineered specifically for longevity and high-traffic public interaction, this modular sculpture framework showcases a digital-to-physical workflow. Built using weather-resistant industrial polymers and reinforced with an internal structural skeleton, the piece is designed to withstand extreme thermal expansion, high wind loads, and UV exposure while maintaining vibrant visual fidelity in outdoor public spaces.

Foundations / Historic Site Activation

Materials & Durability: Cast bronze, structural masonry anchoring, site-specific landscape integration.

Project Overview: Developed for historic house museums and heritage sites, this monumental sculpture line bridges traditional physical permanence with contemporary identity. Focusing heavily on the legacies of the African American diaspora, the work functions as a living monument—anchoring historical memory into a modern, high-contrast visual space that invites community reflection and institutional dialogue.

Augmented Reality (AR) Public Interfaces

Augmented Reality (AR) Public Interfaces

Medium: Immersive digital overlays, custom WebAR portals, QR-integrated physical substrates.

Project Overview: Public art should not be passive. By embedding marker-based Augmented Reality directly into the physical surfaces of murals and sculptures, the artwork expands into a dynamic, educational tool. Visitors use their mobile devices to activate real-time 3D animations, digital archives, or interactive community narratives, seamlessly blending physical fabrication with digital accessibility without requiring an external app download.
