The Consequence of Platforms
Matthew Angelo Harrison

Matthew Angelo Harrison collaborates with materials scientists on a material that can be reconstituted for 3D printing of environments that can go through cycles of creation and decay to explore the notion of “abstract ancestry.” The artist will utilize 3D printing technology to recreate structural environments relevant to the African diaspora and labor history.
