Heather embraces technology as a ceramic artist.
From @h.k.studios - 3D printed porcelain. For me, 3D printing is just another tool; it doesn’t replace hand building, wheel throwing, or slip casting. The hand of the maker is still evident, though in a less obvious way. My printer is built from scratch, I had to learn the programming and how to use the arduino and micro processors. The clay needs to be mixed to a specific consistency, which takes hours when making a large batch. I create all the files myself on a computer, prep slabs, test the pressure of the machine, and then print. After printing, the vessels still need to be cleaned up, bisqued, and glazed. To me, the printing isn’t “cheating.” I love creating shapes and forms that would otherwise be nearly impossible. Printing is just another example of how incredible clay is as a material.
