A member of PrusaLab has taught a robot how to paint

What in today's world of painting can still be called “experimental”? How about a robot painting large-format paintings right in the gallery in front of visitors? Jakub Tajovský presented an exhibition entitled “In One's Own Field” at the Kabinet T gallery in Zlín.

Nobody can introduce the exhibition and its concept better than its curator – the text about the exhibition and more photos can be found here. 

Before the Covid pandemic, PrusaLab had just over 100 members. During our forced break, we transformed into a prototyping and project workshop. The opportunity to become a member didn't disappear, but we decided to devote more attention to people working on a specific project. One of them is the artist Jakub Tajovský, who approached us asking for help with building a painting robot. And since we see ourselves as a workshop exploring the limits of digital fabrication, we agreed straight away. What Malbot is all about, you'll best learn from the author himself on his website.
