Hands Holding the Void (Invisible Object) at MoMA, New York

This highly stylized figure balances on a cagelike throne which, together with the pillory–like board covering her shins, simultaneously supports and restrains her from movement. Her hands, positioned as if holding or offering something, hold nothing, as suggested by the work’s title. Giacometti modeled the figure’s head and face after a protective metal mask. This is Giacometti’s first large–scale, anatomically complete human figure, and his last major work made within the orbit of Surrealism.

this object is pretty tall, so a delta printer should be better (the objet is not moving, so there will be less bending around) it is better to use meshmixer support generator to scare at least as possible the final object the shape of the eyes are here but very hard to see (at least in white filament)
