3D objects in acrylic polymer, polypropylene, table and light source. Table 2m diameter. Installation dimensions variable.
In Manchester University Museum, the artists seek out specimens to scan and 3D print that once lived and breathed and are now held in suspended animation. A playful engagement with these specimens, and the 3D printed miniature replicas of the artists acknowledges the possibilities for transformation and disguise.
Commissioned by The Whitworth Art Gallery. Thanks to Helen Stalker, David Gelsthorp, Malcolm Chapman.
