Looking Outwards-03

Last week I reviewed, the art made by Jessica Rosenkrantz and Jesse Louis-Rosenberg. I said that although the patterns they made were unique, the forms they applied them onto were very generic. Daniel Widrig also makes functional art (furniture), but the forms he generates seem more abstract and natural than the ones mentioned before. There’s more depth to his designs which I like it’s not all on the surface so you can look at this thing he made from a number of angles and it will still be interesting. It says that he used software/technology used by special effects artists to make his 3D printed art. I would guess that he used Maya for some of it because in his description it says he was named “Maya Master.” My friend is a special effects major and she uses Python to code in Maya so if he does use code to generate his forms rather than make them entirely in Maya, then that’s probably what he’s using.
