3D OBJECTS

Hello everyone!  This is the first time I that i use this Blog and I still don’t know if I am doing things correctly but here it is my comment on rihzome….  While browsing the Rihzome site I found pictures of 3d objects made out of cardboard that I had seen recently at the Max Protetch Gallery in Chelsea.  These pieces really interested me for the fact that the artist used such a common material and he opted to use laser technology to mold sculptural and biomorphic shaped objects made out of cardboard.  The interesting shape, large scale and transparency are appealing to me.   The object is hollow giving it transparency and making it interactive.  Viewers can see people walking by behind the object without adding that light plays an important role.  It looks like artists are looking for future possibilities of art making.  Now days, the new media technology play a big role in the process making of art.   These laser cut objects remove the artist’s hand from making the art.
