The fingerprint defines the form - Fingerprint sculptures 2005
Every time its design-every design its individuality
Individuality versus mass production
We live in times where the term “cloning” is not only connected to animals but also to designed
objects. They can be found - slightly modified and much cheaper - in the shelf of chain stores.
Thus, individuality and individual design becomes an important good. The human being is the best
example for uniqueness which is visible in the fingerprint. No print resembles the other, which was
a reason for Fluidforms to take the fingerprint as the source for a sculpture.
Individuality is the message
The designers of Fluidforms stand for creative ideas when it comes to the individualisation of
designed objects. In the design process the customer takes over quite an unusual role, becomes
part of the act of creation of his own sculpture, becomes designer and part of the piece of art
through the contribution of his or her fingerprint. The fingerprint is transformed into a threedimensional
object with the help of computer algorithms. A 3D-printer turns the virtual form into a
real object. The result of this act of creation is a product that is unique in this world.
