What is this thing?

This freely available print-your-own artwork is an addition to the commodity that accompanied my pop-up exhibition of The Prospector at Black Cube nomadic museum in Denver, CO.

 

How It Works

The Prospector Box Set comes with a 3D printed monument base. You can display the Boxed Set box as is, or you can print the top of the model to assemble a complete replica of the inflatable sculpture The Prospector.

Need a base? Order your own Prospector Boxed Set at Black Cube.

Where to Print:

Print your files on any modern 3D printer, or send them to a service bureau. *If you are trying to match the base, be sure to request Makerbot True Blue PLA material, resolution of 0.20mm, 2 shells, no more than 10% infill. Deviations in resolution and material might cause a bad fit. (A print should cost ~$65.)

If you are in the Denver area I recommend using American 3D Printing in Evergreen. If you are outside of Denver, try uploading the file to Shapeways.
