van Herpen’s work is comprehensive, radical and gives you a strong feeling of “that’s not possible in real life”. Well, it is, apparently. Through the use of 3D printing, she’s been able to create stunning works, much of which is apparently built using 3D printing tech.
We’ve learned that central museum utrecht has purchased several of her pieces, which are actually made using the Materialise 3D printing service.
If you happen to be near Utrecht this summer, you might want to check out this exhibition. If not, there’s much to enjoy at van Herpen’s extensive website, too.
