Check it out! Welly Fletcher (Sculpture, Art Department) is a featured BigRep artist! Welly used the BigRep ONE large format printer here at ARTSLab to create a large scale sculptural 3D print for their recent solo show SLANT.
Fletcher’s sculptural centerpiece ‘Trans Time’, measuring 0.9 × 2.1 × 0.7 mts (36 × 86 × 28 inches), is an abstract depiction of a lion-like animal printed using the large-format BigRep ONE 3D printer.
Beginning as a clay model produced by the artist, the piece underwent a transformative journey as it was digitally scanned before emerging as a 3D printed object, made using the University of New Mexico’s ARTSLab BigRep ONE 3D printer.
