My master’s thesis, Phantom Limbs: Design Interventions and Site-specific Storytelling explores how the power of site-specific design can be used to tell the forgotten stories of underrepresented communities. As designers, we have the responsibility to activate neglected places, bring hidden history to light, and expand notions of social value. Focused on Pasadena, I selected several sites where displacements of communities occurred. I explored site-specific, projection-mapped environmental graphics at various scales by projecting statements and facts that reveal the history of these sites and their previous communities.
