Hi! I’m Abby. I’m a designer, sculptor, and illustrator. I’m most passionate about how colors, shapes and illustrations are used to communicate with an audience. I love making minimal drawings and 3D structures using sleek modern elements of design. I work both in traditional and digital design. Being a Cancer, I get emotionally invested in problem solving and I think of a hundred iterations on how to find a solution.

Why can’t people say what they mean? In my site-specific installations and sculptures, I want to say publicly what I hear many people saying privately. My passion is to make administrative language transparent and understandable by the people most impacted by it. I use simplified and amplified statements to project tiring interactions between a range of positions of power. I incorporate text in my work by writing it casually, naively, and confrontationally. My work aims to show the roots of our problems and the structures that have failed marginalized communities time and time again.
Community is a major theme in my work, as I make site-specific work about power dynamics on campus. My work is displayed in galleries as well in public, making it accessible to art and non-art audiences and communities. Oftentimes, people (administration) find my work controversial because it highlights the reality of student life on campus. My goal is to create a space for everyone in the student community to be heard on their own terms and not muted by anyone above them.
