Shapeshifters: 3D Printing the Future

Shapeshifters: 3D Printing the Future

With clothes being printed from desktop computers and organs being manufactured in labs, 3D printing continues to revolutionise design as we know it. Shapeshifters centres on these new methods of making by drawing on the high-tech and rapidly evolving industry of 3D printing and fluid extrusion methodology. Featuring seven Australian and one international artist, the exhibition includes jewellery, furniture, prosthetics and digital interactive sound works.

Shapeshifters: 3D Printing the Future is an Australian Design Centre Touring Exhibition, developed in partnership with Western Plains Cultural Centre.

Australian Design Centre is supported by the Visual Arts and Craft Strategy, an initiative of the Australian, State and Territory Governments. Australian Design Centre is assisted by the New South Wales Government through Arts NSW, and the Australian government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.
