- “Medallion” is a series of 3D-printed wall plaques featuring ornate shapes generated procedurally. The main purpose of this project is to sublimate a traditional beauty found in decorative ornaments into a modern algorithmic art by using a combination of procedural approach in Computer Generated Imagery (CGI) and 3D-printing technology which has been growing rapidly. Each medallion was generated by using metaballs which are a kind of modeling method in CGI. A drawing algorithm for metaballs was modified and optimized for generating ornate relief-like objects in this project. Also, regular-polygonal shapes were used for the process of density calculation in drawing metaballs. Generated patterns were converted into 3D models, and the models were 3D-printed finally. The resultant artworks have been displayed at several art exhibitions; some of them was intended to display traditional art forms such as paintings and sculptures.
