Cosmic Splendor is an exhibition at the American Museum of Natural History, in collaboration with Van Cleef and Arpels. “A stunning assemblage of astronomically inspired jewelry is the focus of the new exhibition” (amnh.org).

For this exhibition I worked with architects, exhibition designers, graphic designers, and digital media producers to design and execute this exhibition. Van Cleef and Arpels provided curated selection of astronomy themed jewelry. Once the exhibition concept was finalized, I worked on executing the design through research and implementation of an infinity mirror light-scape to mimic the feeling of being under the stars. In addition, I worked on researching and building conservation-grade cases for the jewelry. I also collaborated on architectural documents and graphics for the exhibition.
