Sea Whisperer—a small art object shaped like a fantastical creature that lives at the border between the sea and dreams.
According to the object’s legend, it collects anxious thoughts before sleep and transforms them into pleasant dreams. Its organic form combines characteristics of a sea organism, a fantastical creature, and a dreamlike being. The object is intended to be fabricated using photopolymer 3D printing, followed by finishing and decorative painting.
Photopolymer resin, decorative acrylic paint, glossy protective coating.
The Sea Whisperer is a cohesive volumetric object with no detachable connections. The construction is designed for independent hanging on a wire, string, or other fixture. The main elements are formed directly within the 3D model and manufactured concurrently.
Production Stages
A digital 3D model of the complete object, with specified dimensions, is created for production. The model is prepared for export to STL for subsequent mSLA printing.
The object is fabricated using mSLA 3D printing with photopolymer resin. After printing, the support structures are removed, and the surface undergoes post-processing. The object is then painted in a coral-peach palette and coated with a glossy protective finish.
Production Partner
Technar3D / «Engineer’s Corner», Moscow.
The studio performs photopolymer mSLA printing, post-processing, and small-batch manufacturing. Printing costs listed on the site start from ₽50/g, and post-processing starts from ₽150.
Delivery
Delivery of the finished object is not required. The finished piece must be picked up in person from the studio.
Minimum Run — 1 Copy. The project is envisioned as a small series of 10 copies.
Production Timeline
The estimated production time is up to 10 days after the 3D model is approved and the order is finalized. The studio provides this timeframe as a general guide for completing the order.
Grant Calculation
The requested grant amount is 60,000 ₽.
The funds are planned to cover the production of the first piece and a small series of 10 objects, including photopolymer 3D printing, post-processing, painting, and protective coating.
