AUGMENTED REALITIES

One aspect of my creative practice revolves around representing unseen emotions and the complex process of emotional processing in the human experience using augmented reality (AR) as a medium of expression. Through AR, I create immersive and interactive experiences that allow viewers to explore and engage with emotional states that are often intangible and hard to articulate. By blending digital elements with the physical world, I aim to create a multi-dimensional and visceral encounter that triggers a deep feelings and introspection. One of the reasons I'm drawn to AR is its ability to break the barriers of traditional art forms and create new possibilities for storytelling and expression. AR offers an innovative way of presenting art that goes beyond the static confines of a canvas or sculpture, and opens up a dynamic and interactive realm where viewers can actively participate in the creation of meaning.

Moreover, I see AR as a powerful tool for learning and education. It offers a unique opportunity to merge art and technology, creating a new form of interactive learning that is engaging and experiential. I'm excited about the potential of AR as an emerging technology to revolutionize the way we approach education and make learning more immersive, accessible, and enjoyable. In my artistic practice, I strive to push the boundaries of what is possible with AR, exploring its potential to represent the nuances of human emotions and offering viewers a deeper understanding of the complex emotional landscape that defines our human experience. Through my work, I hope to inspire a sense of curiosity and wonder about the possibilities of AR, both as an artistic medium and as a tool for interactive learning.

MENTAL + PHYSICAL FORCES

Felt, Arylic, Procreate, Adobe Aero

This fiber AR piece was an exploration between the physical manifestation of pain and how my thoughts sometimes bubble around a hurt part of myself that I should feel emotionally and release. I represented the thoughts in the intangible reality through AR and felt the juxtaposition of the physical painting and fiber tufted center interacting with the AR mirrored the human process it was based off.

EARTH ENERGIES

Felt, Styrofoam, Procreate, Adobe Aero

This project was my first exploration combining textiles and augmented reality. I felted the world on styrofoam and then used it as an anchor in Adobe Aero. I drew the energys surrounding the felt in Procreate and then brought that into Aero and added animation actions to it.

AR FILTERS

Procreate, Nomad Sculpt, Adobe Aero

Here are a collection of ar face filters that can be explored on the filter tab of my Instagram. Taking my art to ar cataplutled to something that could be taken farther than just me. Not only does this piece showcases what I can create but it also creates a platform for people to be creative and I thought it would be a fun filter for people to play with. I also found it successful because I was laughing while I was making it and had a lot of fun which is something I want to be doing when I'm creating. The software I used was nomad sculpting, where I made the gem and then I brought that into procreates 3D coloring setting and finished it up there. I used Photoshop to create the column moon background for the crystal ball filter and then I use spark AR to create the filters and for the mirror and crystal ball asset.
