Made from 3D printed pieces, ‘the wheel of life’ by czech designer monika horcicova is a skeletal sculpture that is based on a symbol of infinity.
the round structure refers to the repeated cycle of conception and
death, with walking legs used to evoke the image of people in motion.
the idea explores the fragility of human bones, which despite this are
able to carry the weight of the whole human figure during its life...
the
plaster composite pieces were 3D printed and then placed in a form and
casted in a polyurethane resin, the individual pieces were then
assembled into a single object. via_http://www.designboom.com/art/monika-horcicova-3d-prints-wheel-of-life-skeletal-sculpture-03-19-2014/
