DeForm ReForm was a site specific sculpture to explore the boundaries of what was possible when incrementally deforming copper to harden it into a structural building material. Using a six-axis robot to stretch the copper panels, this experimental project coupled the precision and power of machinery with the whimsy of design. As project manager for a team of six people, I generated the toolpaths for 31 unique copper panels, managed the files and labeling system, maintained the fabrication and construction schedule, and kept constant communication with the team.
