ELENA VELEZ - YEAR ZERO NYFW 2021 
set design - sculpture

In collaboration with architect, Ryan Tretow, we designed built a set for Elena Velez' 2021 New York Fashion Week debut.  The experience was inverted by creating a gallery-like experience where guests walked around and observed models at varying elevations. In addition to creating this "monument" of fashion, I fabricated two sculptural works entitled "entrapments" which, in Elena's words, "explore architectural explorations of the tensions between body, clothing and space."
