SOMATIC STRUCTURES
CJ ESCOBAR-RODGERS
A humanist critique drawing inspiration from textiles, architecture, ornament, and technologies influenced by forms found in nature. The project treats humans in a similar way by appropriating their bodies for structural and decorative elements to show how they can be similarly manipulated. It also applies animistic ways of engaging with the world to our made environment.
