Here are some artists whose names I took note of during the global lecture. I've encountered [Antony Gormley](https://www.antonygormley.com/)'s work online many times. The British sculptor creates abstract human forms with steel and gemotric shapes. On the other hand, [Claudia Fontes](https://claudiafontes.com/)'s sculptures are softer and more organic. She creates these creatures from the fairytales with white procelain. They gently hug themselves, or each other, portraying the intimate and unseperable relationships between human and nature.

## **SLICER**
Slicer translates a 3D file into 2D, prepare it for laser cutting. Be careful with the red parts. It means some parts may not be able to stand or hold.
