Fukahori paints these amazing masterpieces using a technique similar to how a 3D printer works. He first starts off with a painted layer of the fish. He then pours a thin layer of resin onto the painting and then paints a new layer on top of that. After many iterations of this process the final result is what you can see above - A stunning 3D masterpiece that seems to capture a moment of beauty.
Fukahori has taken the ‘classical art’ medium and merged it with the modern concept of 3D printing. This is truly inspiring as a designer since it’s a perfect example of how different mediums can be unified to create something incredible. It opened my mind up to other more classical mediums and helps you to consider things that may have otherwise been overlooked.
Often I find myself as a designer overlooking concepts and ideas from the past and concentrate on the future. Foreseeing new ideas isn’t bad, but as Fukahori has proved here considering traditional techniques and uniting them with the modern concepts can create amazing results.
