“It
is the act of breaking a handcrafted object that gives us the opportunity to
restore it with 3D printing. In a simple and primal way, destruction is the
ultimate risk a creator takes on when embarking on a project—fabrics can stain
or tear, wood can be cut and ceramics can shatter. By accepting destruction,
the craftsperson comes to terms with one of the essences of the workmanship of
risk.”
