I 3D-printed a fishbone, curious about how the computer would

handle the delicate spikes, since clay struggles to hold such

fragile structures together in a short time. I found that the

software generated supports between the spikes, reinforcing

them in a way that wasn’t part of my original intent.

I decided to give my fish flesh. Wax became the ideal material

due to its adaptability and organic texture, contrasting with the

rigid ceramic structure. Once the fish took form, I connected it

to a thin metal rod, one light enough to shift with the fish’s

weight. As a result, the fish drags the wire, moving as if it were

alive.

By introducing kinetic movement, I explore my ongoing interest

in cyborgs—creating a being that is neither fully organic nor

fully mechanical, but something in between. This movement

blurs the line between object and living creature, questioning

what it means for something to exist in a liminal state.
