Image: In Absentia, 2024, 3D objects modeled and rendered in Maya. In Absentia is an artwork that proposes a fictional exhibition to be installed in an office in Midtown Manhattan, exploring glass as an architectural material imbued with utopian ideas. This show would display miniatures of 20th-century glass architectures that were either destroyed or never built: El Lissitzky’s Cloud-Iron, the Crystal Palace, Bruno Taut’s Glass House, FrankLloyd Wright’s East Village Towers, and Mies van der Rohe’s Friedrichstrasse Skyscraper.
