Pain Transfer Experience (2024), my BFA Thesis
Nostalgia is painful. Once-in-a-lifetime events happen all the time without us realizing, people come and go, and places that once held importance are now inaccessible. Pain Transfer Experience 2 is a physical memory, a conglomerate of people, places, and things that live in a box in the corner of my mind that I took and placed in the physical world. It is an ode to moving on, and a tribute to not wanting to move on.

Pain Transfer Experience is a two-part immersive experience. The first part is a VR recreation of an airplane, in which the viewer sits and waits for the plane to take off. (spoiler alert: it never does!) The second part is an interactive sculpture, made with resin and touch sensors.
Pain Transfer Experience (2024) is an interactive series in which the viewer is asked to participate in and interact with the works. Both installments only work if the viewers actively participate in these experiences.
