3D Printing and Sculpture: A Match Made in Heaven

3D Printing

3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-dimensional objects from a digital model or file. This technology has revolutionized many industries, including art. With 3D printing, sculptors can create complex, intricate designs that were previously impossible to achieve through traditional methods.

Benefits of 3D Printing

  • Ability to create multiple copies of a design with ease
  • Allows artists to experiment with new shapes and forms
