Stephen Mora, Lecturer, with students, is recognized in suckerPUNCH with the installation project, “Intervention”. This installation sits at the belly of the George Pearl Hall, designed by AIA Gold Medalist, Antoine Predock. The plaza level of Pearl Hall provides an open canvas for a spatial intervention of this scale, one that explores the manifestation of complex geometry through the techniques of CNC fabrication, tectonics, details and joinery.
