'Inside Out' is a compelling international touring exhibition featuring 46 miniature sculptures produced in resin using 3D printing technologies. The title is also the theme for this exhibition, which focuses on emerging digital design techniques and the growth of sophisticated rapid prototyping tools and methods.
Co-Curated by Claire Smith (Aus) and Martin Rieser (DMU), Inside Out demonstrates how developments in these technologies are giving contemporary makers new insights and opportunities to create objects and forms which were previously impossible to produce.
The exhibition is the result of collaboration between the Art Technology Coalition, the University of Technology Sydney and RMIT University in Australia along with De Montfort University, Manchester Metropolitan University and University College Falmouth (incorporating Dartington College of Arts) in the United Kingdom.
