3D printing 3D printing is used for many purposes such as architecture engineering medical and art. i will use 3d printing to create robotic forms that resemble humans in a sort of larger then life scale and to help create the effect of this scale i will use sculptures for my first project i will be printing a robotic hand low poly and then will have it go over my sculpture spiral city to create a sort of crushing effect this will show technology crashing and destroying human society. this will be a recurring theme in my work because i use electronics to coop emotionally and i know its unhealthy and to show this i will also be using religions such as Buddhism, Nordic, Greek, roman, and Christianity to show this and to create the effect of a society not only upheld but lead and created by technology. Using sculpture to represent humanity and 3D printing for technology.

Shahzia Sikander is a very interesting artist her work uses a lot of layering and her use of it is exceptional she knows how to combine shapes and colors. one of her most famous works is the last post featured on art21 they review this and it shows a exceptional amount of layering. She use this tactic a lot in her work and it gives life to her work an example of this is the second picture (right below) this is a self portrait she made of herself and the layering in this piece is the parts of her face behind the yellow i like this example because it shows a kind of spill like effect on the page.

Feng Mengbo is a video game artist of sorts he projects his art of pixelated video game like images on walls giving the real world the appearance of a game. this shows hybridity by crossing the real world and pixels in one Feng dose this by taking images of his self in poses fighting and putting them into his games. he has a very unique style and he dose a lot his works were featured at bejjins today art museum.

Feng Mengbo comes up with his art
