- This Spring/Summer collection was initially prompted by an exploration between man-made objects and water, a study defined as water archaeology. The Wyse Ferry Bridge is currently under 160 ft. of water in Lake Murray, South Carolina. Lake Murray, a manmade lake flooded by a dam, in conjunction the Wyse Ferry bridge inspired the combination of structural pleated elements with soft, textural, and organic forms.
