Museum Princessehof

Leeuwarden, NL, Feb 27 - Oct 2, 2016

Olivier van Herpt uses his 3D printer to form a bridge between technology and craftsmanship. The printer is extremely sensitive to external stimuli and vibrations, which means the machine can be influenced while printing. Clay is also a fickle material, so coincidence plays a role too. The result is an artisanal product, made with the latest technology. The 30 exhibited objects vary greatly in colour, size, shape and texture, from a broad, dark object with a rough texture to a slender, delicate vase. Herpt will demonstrate his printer several times during the exhibition.
