Since late spring, Artengine has been working on a 3D printing system. The Cupcake CNC machine prints in layers of ABS filament producing rough but very durable plastic objects. We are looking for a small group of artists to explore the creation and production process from a more experimental and conceptual angle.
Each year Artengine commissions a new work of art for the network, and hosts it on its artist-run server while highlighting on its homepage. Shape of Luck is part of this series and will be presented by Artengine until June 2011.
