Folded Poetry Collection
The Folded Poetry Tile Collection by Eliza Redmann is a multi-dimensional symbol of her experience recovering from traumatic brain injury. Inspired by her altered experience of reality post brain injury, the collection’s Diad, Hexad, and Triad designs feature directionally scattered surfaces that not only disperse and absorb sound waves but also visually mimic disorientation. These designs can be arranged either individually or in combination to create limitless customizable patterns, meeting the needs of a variety of spatial applications. Crafted from PET, Folded Poetry addresses both aesthetic and acoustic challenges by reducing auditory overwhelm while offering a dynamic, multi-dimensional reflection of Eliza’s recovery journey, where art and functionality converge.

About the Designer, Eliza Redmann:
Eliza Redmann is a sculptural artist and architect based in Durham, North Carolina whose work is informed by her experience with traumatic brain injury. A car crash in 2018 unexpectedly plunged Eliza into disability interrupting her blossoming career in architecture. In response to her unfortunate circumstances, she began producing architectural art to both heal herself and channel her altered experience of reality into mind-bending geometric sculptures. Eliza manages persistent visual disturbances resulting from her brain injury daily, and through Folded Poetry, she seeks to “capture the structure of regular patterns and shapes, while adding a layer of geometric information which the eyes and brain can’t quite make sense of. This visual disorientation is designed to challenge viewers to perceive outside of what is normal or traditional, just as I must now live, adapt, and navigate the world in new ways.” In response to the auditory overwhelm caused by her injury, Eliza leaned into the directionally scattered surfaces of Folded Poetry which naturally lend themselves to the scattering of noise waves. Utilizing Unika Vaev’s PET and printing capabilities, this pairing of art and functionality is a symbol of innovation and a reimagination of not only Eliza’s career, but also her life’s purpose.
