Passion for the unknown “To me, finding an intimate and personal relation with digital media represents a form of passion. Through my work, I make these means adapt to my needs, my identity is always present in my work. Exploring motivates me, I am drawn to the unknown, to exploring the unknown. I prefer to be constantly exploring and finding. It’s not about searching a preset result, on the contrary, the essence of my work is based on exploring and finding (…) Making digital means do what I intend it to do, forcing it to do things it wasn’t originally designed to do. This effort involves acquiring knowledge beyond what’s known, aiming beyond the apparent. This passion for the unknown has made 3D printing a possibility for art and has set a new horizon for the applications of this new technology. So, it’s about humanizing, turning technologies into a sign of human expression. If they are designed to do “a,” we can make them do “b,” “c” and “z.” Exploring the unknown means going beyond, breaking barriers.” PM
