(CTRL) (P) Objects on Demand is a collaboration between Object: Australian Design Centre and Courtesy of the Artist (COTA). It combines an exhibition, pop-up shop, public programs and workshops to investigate how 3D printing can transform the way we design, make, use and consume the objects around us.
The exhibition features a range of contemporary jewellery, including designer and metalsmith Cinnamon Lee, who specialises in 3D computer modelling and traditional silversmithing techniques, through to the interwoven, geometric structures of Bin Dixon-Ward’s wearable brooches and neckpieces.
The exhibition is small scale but the accompanying events and workshops for children, high-school students and adults is more extensive and practical with multiple 3D printng workshops on offer until the end of the exhibition.
(CTRL) (P) features a 3D photo booth where you can scan and print a miniature portrait of yourself raising the question to be debated on November 26th, “Now that we can print (almost) anything, should we?” (CN)
