Dolly | Intern Emeritus
“While I find architecture of the 20th century to have been highly didactic, today’s major architectural works are more pedantic in their outcome, which is why my works’ core goals aim to capture the ethereal nature of spatial permanence in a way that still manages to unify itself with the simple, plain-spoken, short-lived, and common souls trudging through the modern, albeit muddled society of the early 21st century.”
