Space Weaving

Space Weaving employs advanced robotic 3D printing technology to create intricate three-dimensional grid structures, exploring geometric aesthetics that traditional craftsmanship cannot achieve. With precise control over the material's temperature and the machine's movements, three-dimensional carbon fiber is printed directly into the air. A robust structural grid is woven through variations in printing angles, speed, precision, and temperature, which engages in a dynamic spatial dialogue, enhanced by the interplay of light and shadow.
