TIA KEOBOUNPHENG: CATCH-ALL INTERDISCIPLINARY PORTFOLIO
2014 MN Regional Yoga Asana Championship Medals
Each year, Bikram's Yoga College of India - Minneapolis sponsors the MN Regional Yoga Asana Championships. This year, the chief organizer, Martha Williams, asked Tia to make the medals for the Championship. As alternatives to actual gold, silver and bronze, Tia used a metallic sheet material that sandwiched a thick clear acrylic. Additionally, copper star medals were created for kids who took part in the Kids Yoga Demonstration.
Each medal was designed in AutoCad and laser-cut out of sheet material, then assembled by hand. Ribbons were sewn with a sewing machine.
