Monika Horcicova Transforms 3D Printed Bones into Art
Czech Designer Monika Horcicova’s sculpture called ‘The Wheel of Life’ is creepy and beautiful. The artist was inspired by many concepts to create the structure.
Looking like a wheel of bones, the 3D-printed skeletal sculpture takes inspiration from the infinity symbol. The structure is round to represent the cycle of life and death. The wheel is made up of walking legs, which refer to people in motion. Bones are fragile and yet they can carry the human frame through life. Horcicova printed the sculpture in individual pieces and then assembled it.
The structure is morbid, yet it does make you see the beauty of the human body and recognize that even something as basic as bones can be made into something beautiful.

Science & Art in dialogue over the centuries
Art has long been interested in Research and Science: from Renaissance art and Leonardo da Vinci with his studies of physics, 19th century art nouveau with its influence from shapes and colours emerging from biology and the invention of the microscope, to 20th century art with Surrealist iconography drawing on Freud and the findings of psychiatry, the acclaimed American James Turrell working with the physical laws and the optical illusions of light, the young Chinese WU Juehui dealing with a potential interface between neuroscience and art, and to grand international exhibitions dedicated to the intersection of art and science, such as L’âme au corps: arts et sciences 1793-1993 at the Grand Palais in Paris, curated by the great art historian Jean Clair, the meeting point of art and research/science has been fascinating artists and has deeply determined the course of their work.
