New Artificiality / 2016
Catherine Leutenegger

For “New Artificiality”, Catherine Leutenegger visited a Chinese construction company that makes buildings using gigantic 3D printers. Will these fabrications, using layer after layer of cement, created in record time and at a record-low cost, come to dominate as a new construction method, marking the end of standardization? 3D printing here represents an unprecedented fusion of architecture and representation, and is changing our experience of reality.
