Human Organ Posters

These three posters are satirical advertisements for an imaginary company that sells human organs. The organs are made up of elements from my photographs, drawings, and collages, as well as scanned objects.

Parking proposal

These are my contributions to a group project outlining a hypothetical proposal to improve the parking situation at St. Edwards University. The group decided on a tiered parking system with a valet option. I was in charge of the implementation portion of the proposal, which included:

1. Color-coded parking lot signs
2. A poster to promote the new parking system
3. A newspaper ad
4. A sign for the valet stand





Locating place: a motion piece

This is a short motion piece that attempts to capture the mood of a particular neighborhood. The objects and images were taken directly from the neighborhood and re-framed in a new context.

Locating place postcards

These are stills from the locating place motion piece.








Locating place book


The idea behind the locating place books is to address the general question of what creates, identifies, and defines cities and places, and then focus in on a particular neighborhood.

In order to reflect the idea of the city as an ever evolving entity with no beginning and no end within the actual structure of the book, I used a book structure that also had no beginning or end. It is essentially a wooden dowel with three book sections hanging on metal rings, allowing the pages to be viewed in many different combinations, without a significant opening or closing point.
