Anya Gallaccio : Beautiful Minds

3 Feb-25 Mar 2017

Thomas Dane Gallery
London SW1Y 6BN

Overview

In her forth-coming exhibition at Thomas Dane Gallery, Anya Gallaccio will present Beautiful Minds, 2015. A giant 3D clay printer, will occupy the entire gallery space and over the course of the exhibition be actively printing a scaled effigy of a mountain (to be precise Devil’s Tower, Wyoming). The machine, built by the artist in collaboration with a group of her recent graduates from UC San Diego, usurps recent advances in mechanical technology, subverting the very precise process of 3D printing by forcing the approximate and unreliable material of a slip clay thorough it.
