preserve.wardrobe

⮎ Preserve.Wardrobe is a fashion search engine, community message board, and personal digital closet. The web application focuses on collecting and preserving your items. Rather than consumerism, each item is found or bought with intent. This is truly for the people who love fashion — simply doing it for the love of the game.

⮎ This project is a visual grief map of people who have experienced loss. It allows users to share their stories and memories in a visual and emotional way, creating a collective map of grief and remembrance.

notes around the web

⮎ have you ever wondered if someone has been on the same niche webpage as you? well — i just created a web extension where you can leave notes on the web for anyone else who stumbles upon them.

recording of feelings

⮎ Tape Recorder of Feelings saves what each user inputs into a database, so that the next person who types the same feeling sees what the person before them wrote and why they felt it. It's a subtle reminder that you are not alone. Everyone is carrying invisible weight. In real time, users input a feeling, which gets sent to an Arduino that prints a physical receipt --the feeling and the reasons behind it, rendered tangible.

overconsumed

⮎ This project replicates the visual feeling of anxiety. I hooked up a live heart sensor through an Arduino, positioned directly over the heart, so that each beat triggers a particle that pulses outward on screen. Every particle represents a new beat and they keep accumulating, piling up, refusing to disappear. The buildup is the point--it mirrors the overwhelming, all-consuming nature of anxiety itself.This is a live visualization of what anxiety does to me. And it can reach a breaking point

Real American

⮎ This piece is dedicated to immigrants—too often rendered invisible in the American narrative. The green card, while symbolizing legal residency, still carries the label "resident alien," a term that strips individuals of humanity and reinforces the idea they will never be seen as truly American.

Reminiscence

⮎ This work revolves around memory—specifically how our memories evolve over time, particularly with sentimental items we've lost over the years. An exploration on how we attach memories to material objects.
