Chrysalis (2025)
Steel, ripstop, thread, and lamp

Chrysalis is a large-scale sculptural form built from a welded armature inspired by the tetrahedron—the Platonic solid associated with fire and rebirth. Its shape evokes a cocoon mid-metamorphosis, stretched with translucent fabric and lit from within, casting warm fire-like light through the geometric skeleton. Though rooted in sacred geometry, the structure resists symmetry, leaning into the organic asymmetry of nature. It glows from within like a being on the cusp of becoming.

Collaboratively created by a team of artists as part of the Museum of Outdoor Arts Design & Build Program.
