A Critique Nestlé Formula Cycle
This cycle explores the unethical sale of formula by companies such as Nestlé in less economically developed countries. The sale of formula, when unaccompanied with instructions, has led to the continuation of poverty, malnutrition of children, and the manipulation of their parents. While formula is beneficial in developed countries, large companies take advantage of the world's worried mothers and have sold alternatives to breast milk knowing that many people have no way of securing clean water or proper sterilization measures. This cycle explores the extent that companies will go to in order to make sales, from impersonating nurses to targeting woman's insecurites.

Sexual Assault- Visual Culture Intervention
Created in collaboration with Valerie Laplaca and Paige Short, we began an investigation of sexual assault on college campuses. We were studying artful interruption and wanted to create a way to educate our peers on college sexual assault and guide survivors towards The University of Georgia and Athens, Georgia resources. We developed posters that we distributed downtown Athens which used QR codes for easy access to resources. We also created a Snap Chat filter which encouraged awareness in the downtown setting.
​
Valerie Laplaca and I presented our research findings at the Art and Education for Social Justice Symposium in February 2020 and our corresponding artwork was featured in The University of Georgia's Glass Gallery
