Czech Designer Monika Horčicová has created a skeletal structure using 3D-printed bones made out of plaster composites. Entitled 'The Wheel of Life', the sculpture takes inspiration from the infinity symbol. The round shape refers to the cycle of life and death, and the wheel is made of walking legs, representing people in motion.
Each piece in the sculpture was 3D printed and then assembled into a single object.
Monika Horčicová is one of the hottest emerging artists in the Czech Republic. Her work explore themes of infinity; a repeated cycle of conception and death. Rather than looking at bones as a symbol of morbidity, she aims to show them as objects that can be beautiful when we view them properly.
