PROJECT BRIEF
The 5th theme of the ‘I have a Dream’ Project was ‘To Fly’ due October 2017. This medal is composed by a 3D printed brain, aluminium wire, cardboard, rope and polyester crystal resin. It was inspired by a hot-air balloon. Imagination makes us fly, intelligence takes us further on, a brain was the symbol I have found to represent all these ideas and ways to fly, our brain takes us beyond.
