Working at Sundaymorning@ekwc, exploring the possibilities of 3D printing ceramics for architectural use.
My residency at EKWC is part of a research project into producing sustainable architecture from local materials. By translating the knowledge of traditional building methods to the contemporary context of architecture, I explore the possibilities of digital fabrication techniques. Designing for digital fabrication requires a renewed understanding of materials and manufacturing which I have worked to develop further during the work period of residence by making computer models and producing prototypes. By doing so I explore both functional and esthetic qualities of the digital production in clay.
Sundaymorning@ekwc is an international workplace where artists, designers, and architects explore the technical and artistic possibilities of ceramics. Sundaymorning@ekwc operates as an artist-in-residence center and as a center of excellence. It aims to promote the development of ceramic art, design, and architecture.
The residency is part of my research into the possibilities of digital manufacturing in architecture funded by the Creative Industries Fund NL
The research is made possible with the generous support of the Creative Industries Fund NL
