Milling Tumors

Digital Tumors
Jake Ellis


The focus of my some of my past work has explored the union of technology and anatomy. Much like those pieces my goal with this project was to explore that interplay. Starting with an image of a brain tumor, I worked in illustrator and rhino to convert that image to curves and add depth. The piece was then milled and after making a mold, cast in Aqua Resin.

I also took some tumors and laser engraved on wooden panels to further explore this idea.
