Inside A Painting

Have you ever found yourself sitting in a cramped position in front of your screen, trying to be creative? Well, I have, especially while working with CAD-software and 3D-printers as an architect. These innovations prevent us from feeling fully creative while we slowly lose connection with reality.

What if we reframe the way we design technology? Can we balance the human-machine relationship? I search for an answer through my self-developed intuitive 3D-printer called Ana. An analog machine which I pioneered during my studies at the TU Delft, Ar

About Tiwánee van der Horst

Through robotisation and digitalisation we are slowly removing the human from the making process. We lose connection with the materials, the end result and our own human skills. Tiwánee van der Horst developed a 3D-painting machine as a reaction on the 3D-print technology, to reintegrate the human in both the creation- and making process. The machine, called Ana, consists of a plastic extruder hanging from a balanced mechanism, enabling her to move freely and intuitively through the air.
