Nozomi is a Paris based artist that creates designs of exquisite insects resembling like they carry minerals on their backs.
The artist created these glistening beetle specimens through a process of digital sculpting, 3d printing, and good old-fashioned lacquer painting. The works are a continuation of an ongoing series.
The concept of this collection is insects mimicking their mineral environmnent.
Each beetle was designed using 3D sculpting software, created with a 3D printer (Form2),
and then hand-painted with lacquer and color shifting pigments.
