Project
Void Spa
2019-
Void Spa is an immersive installation which will invite participants into several black boxes (Rubble grid, Noise Bath, Trash Burial) that replicate a contemplative cave experience with darkness and harsh ambient sound. This project examines how rites develop within post-industrial subcultures, especially through sensory design. It also troubles extractive and appropriative use of Black and Brown spirituality within luxury wellness. The pieces of our protected or disrupted traditions are still alive in their syncretic adaptations and media representations.

Top Image:
An arc of black bridge-sized cards rests on a light wood table. Two light skinned hands emerge from a black sweatshirt with short, bare nails.
The hand on the left is pulling one card away from the spread. On the chest of the sweatshirt, there is a white rectangular logo that reads ‘realm’ in thin white lettering.
Bottom Image:
Two light skinned hands with short bare fingernails each hold half of a split deck of cards. The hand on the left reveals a white card that reads ‘realm’ in black serifed type. The hand on the right has a bent index finger on a black card, preparing to bridge shuffle.

Top Image:
Four black lines cross on a white background. Each line is wavy like the surface of water or a meandering breeze
Bottom Image:
Continuous black lines cross to form alternating sharp angles and rounded sides like fruit. At the top of the mirroring shape, sharp corners jut upward like incomplete arrows. The shape rests on closed points
