In linguistics, "translation" is the transfer of a word from one language to another. Similarly, art serves as a language for me. My sculptures translate everyday objects into art through digital manufacturing. Rather than perfect reproductions, I emphasize the traces and ruptures of production processes in my material objects. I translate and reinterpret everyday objects, endowing them with a “personal signature” through a digital transformation, considering their craftsmanship and cultural context. I meld characteristics of digital production—smooth surfaces and forms—with the vivacious, common, cultural objects where the manual fabrication process takes center stage. These 3D-printed ceramic or plastic sculptures, reimagined and vibrant, lose their original functionality and are strategically installed in exhibitions. My work explores individuality in digital art, questioning if digital methods enhance accuracy and identity while distinguishing themselves from impersonal digital production.
