sutton explores the space between technology and antiquity:
"i want to create impressions of figures, casting a representation of my subject as a digital shell, cracked and imperfect by the passing of time and movement."
using 3d scanning, augmented reality, 3d printing of marble and artificial intelligence, jam sutton creates sculptures that explore the identity and representation of the body in our digital age.
his latest exhibition 'life inside the wires' is accessible to anyone, in the jam sutton studio app.

BONE CHINA
this tableware is not vegan.
bone china is the highest grade of porcelain. In addition to kaolin, feldspar and quartz, bone china contains bone ash, whose high proportion of calcium oxide and calcium phosphate gives the porcelain its magical translucency and whiteness and hardness.
fine porcelain is a great example of finding a purpose for what is left and taking from nature just what you need.
this magic secret ingredient was a jealously guarded kept secret in china for centuries until it was stolen by europeans and produced in germany for the first time around 1708. but according to records, the first patent was registered by thomas frye, director of the 'bow porcelain factory' in london in 1748.
however, the best bone china artisans are still from jingdezhen, china.
for us, it's about preserving traditional manufacturing in collaboration with small family businesses and workshops.
