In collaboration with the Penn Museum, our team collaborated on an exhibit focused on spatially representing information. Constructed with a tube steel frame, this "cabinet of curiosities" holds 3D printed replicas of ancient artifacts from the museum's collection. The organization of the artifacts is organized horizontally based on geographic origin and vertically according to age. In plan, the ground forms a map of the world that reaches out to locate these artifacts area of origin. Each artifact is hidden behind a veil and framed individually to allow those sitting on the surrounding bench to have a level of intimacy and meditation with each object.
