Eliza's Commission Portfolio
Eliza Redmann's custom commissions bring beauty and functionality to any space. Using form and shadow, this work pushes the boundaries of visual experience. Simple yet perplexing, the viewer is challenged to reflect on how they encounter and view the world.
Through her commissions, Eliza seeks unique design problems that present an opportunity to expand the nexus where functionality and art meet.
"I aim to create a mind-bending and perplexing experience that draws people in. I intend for viewers to feel challenged to think about complex topics like disability through experiencing the irregularity of my artwork. Providing an experience outside of the ‘normal’ lends a better understanding of the lived experiences of people with disabilities."
Paper Art
Framed paper art works are a cornerstone of Eliza's practice. A few simple paper models produced in her basement during the pandemic ignited a storm of design ideas.
Generated largely as custom commissions, this portfolio of work is continuously growing.
Wall Art and 3-D Installations
Eliza's designs find strength in their scalability and repetition. This collection of custom large-scale installations was initially conceived as paper study models. Moving from framed individual art works to larger site-specific installations was a natural evolution of Eliza's practice.

Acoustics
During Eliza's career as an architectural designer, she recognized a design opportunity.
Architects and designers utilize sustainable materials such as concrete, natural stone, metals, and hardwoods to create beautiful spaces and provide longevity. While achieving excellence in durability, these materials can unintentionally create uncomfortably loud spaces. Positive user experience is crucial to the success of a building project.
Common solutions to auditory problems are adding carpeting, or using extremely expensive, and sometimes unattractive, acoustical paneling manufactured by large corporate entities. Eliza's acoustic line offers a local artisanal alternative.
