Day Schildkret is known internationally for MorningAltars and has inspired people of all ages to forage, build and pray with Earth Art. I graphically facilitated his vision of a calendar showcasing his work and calling attention to cycles and seasons.
Freelance graphic design project for the Public Interest Law Center's annual event. I worked with members of PILCOP to develop a graphic style that fit the theme of "Of the People, By the People, For the People." Paper election ballots and classic block letter fonts served as the inspiration and informed the design of invitations, media graphics and rsvp cards.
A collaboration between James Stone Goodman and the Epichorus, L'oud and the Abstract Truth is double CD set of live recordings and accompanying poetry book.

The Epichorus ensemble is stirring the sounds of Middle Eastern roots music; the ancient Oud roars alongside electric organs, string, wind and bass. Playing music from 1960's Egypt, religious songs from the Syrian Jews, Sufi trances and classical arabic standards, the Epichorus has carved a unique niche in the music of the East. They will release their sophomore studio offering in 2016.
Album design based on a painting for Zach Fredman (composer and oud player of the Epichorus) and Zivar Amrami for their wedding.
In the Fall of 2014, Charlyn Griffith of Sanctuary Wholistic Arts organized a Saturday school at an urban farm in North Philadelphia. We facilitated a series of workshops focused on the future vision of the community space. Charlyn and I worked closely to articulate the information gathered at the workshops into a presentation of a potential 5 and 10 year phasing plan for the future of the farm and community center.
As a Junior Designer at Mork Ulnes Architects I worked on many facets of this project. From initial schematic and design development through detailing and construction documentation.
Images at right highlight one scheme from the conceptual design phase of a single family residence in Bethlehem, Palestine. The architectural conceptualization was a collaboration with local artist and architect, Benji Boyadgian. I took the lead on the graphic styling of the presentation material and the 3D modeling.
