Update on Anne-Mie Melis' R&D residency
In April 2015 we were joined by Anne-Mie Melis who wanted to complete a Makers Using Technology R&D residency. Our R&D residencies follow the same processes as our commissioned residencies, the artists are trained in Freeform, 3D technologies and are mentored, the difference is the artists seek external funding to do it. In this case Anne-Mie was funded by the Arts Council Wales.
Anne-Mie’s art work is concerned with humanity’s relationship with nature and how this may evolve in the future. During her residency Anne-Mie developed a new body of work. The delicate works are imagined seedpods created via digital making processes... haptic modelling and Projet printing. Anne-Mie's work is a useful example of how the digital making processes allow an artist to create work that would be difficult/ impossible by hand.
