ARTIST’S STATEMENT:
I am creating this work in hopes to push myself in the realm of my previous skill set. In the beginning of the semester I had no knowledge of how to work in blender or how to 3-D print. With the help of Professor Lee I learned how to 3-D print and have taught myself how to 3-D sculpt and create animations. I wanted to create a project that was multifaceted and had multiple levels of interaction.
