Florentine Opera - Season Image

As part of MIAD's competitive internal internship, Visual Resources, I was challenged to create a set of cohesive, approachable visuals for the four shows in the Florentine Opera Company's 2012 Season.

In order to appeal to a broad audience and help visualize opera's emotional intensity I illustrated simple but dramatic symbols in a stylized manner, inspired by cut-paper. The climactic depictions, reminiscent of simplified Victorian toy theater cut-outs, are set against vivid backdrops painted as a reaction to each show's score.

This project was selected as the winning design and was used by the opera company to promote their 2012 season.

In•Season Pop-Up Dinner

In•Season is a seasonal pop-up dinner hosted out of my home in Brewer's Hill. Featuring dishes from the minds of Milwaukee's top emerging chefs and produce from local farms, In•Season is a synthesis of experimental cuisine and experiential dining. As the primary driver behind In•Season, I organize, promote, and host the events, working closely with the chefs to showcase their vision and make sure everything runs smoothly.
