Sculpture - 3D Printing. 3D printing is the process that makes physical objects from virtual CAD models.
There are many different ways to do it, but they all work by building up models one layer at a time. It's not a carving process: computer-controlled mills can be used to cut a design out of a solid block of material, but that method doesn't work well for designs which have a lot of undercutting, like mine. There's a huge variety of 3D printing processes available, all using different materials in different ways, and mostly proprietary to competing companies. Studio Art.
