Abstract

This practice-based research project investigates the relationship between historical accuracy and artistic expression in 3D digital sculpting, utilizing Marcus Aurelius as a case study. In order to generate insights into best practices and tactics for 3D digital sculpting as a form of historical representation, the project intends to construct a 3D digital sculpture of the emperor that strikes a compromise between accuracy and artistic expression. The sculpture will be made with a combination of 3D digital sculpting software, such as Zbrush and Blender, and historical study and visual references will guide the design process. This research project will analyze the trade-offs and choices that must be made in order to produce a digital sculpture that is both historically representative and artistically expressive, as well as any potential effects that these choices have on how historical figures are portrayed in art and design.
