'Filament Sculptures' - LIA, 2014

"Exploration of 3D printer behaviour and filament, resulting in a new form of sculpture that is native to the medium. Unlike in typical 3D printing, where the filament is always held tightly under control, LIA permitted the filament to flow where it wanted to go within parameters that she defined, exploring the dynamic interplay between controlled hierarchical construction and free-form self-organisation.

The resulting objects have surfaces that range from smooth to chaotic, and lines that shift from rigid to organic. Employing methods such as “strings and blobs,” under-constrained wall-building, and natural collapse, LIA created a series of sculptures exploring what is revealed as a vast parameter space"

Wow this is so cool, LIA totally nailed it by letting the filament dance freely and create such unique organic yet structured art pieces
