Eric van Straaten – 3D Printer Sculptures
‘Although my tastes are a bit old fashioned, I am a child of my time. (…) I am inspired by let’s say pop-culture in general, and I think the youth culture in Japan nowadays, the USA from the seventies and Europe from the eighties/nineties provide the most powerful imagery. Needless to say that ‘Lolita’, first conceived by Vladimir Nabokov but now an iconic figure, is important in my work.’
