MEN AT WORK
Stereolithographic projection
With Men at Work, Julien Maire presents a conceptual game built on the old myth of relief cinema, popular today both in dark rooms and in mass consumer electronics. But his 3D cinema is deep, both symbolically and literally. Running in a loop, the film shows a man printed in 3D endlessly digging a hole: removing earth from one spot and accumulating it in another, as with today’s subtractive or additive manufacturing technologies.
