Eggoal project - Egg realised by a three dimension printer, then broken - Digital Photography and object - Elisa Fantozzi, 2010 Eggoal is a project to study and research on the production / reproduction / transformation of egg processing through the hen, the artist the science and the technology.To compare its mass production with its symbols and its myths. To imagine the transformation and then create it.
The egg fragile and mysterious has always been a strong symbol of condensed representation, it seems to escape to all definitions, but it is one of myths and contains several stories from Asia and the West: easter egg, egg primordial, egg originel , cosmogonic egg ...

In a white powder the machine prints with a jet of colored catalyser the form, which gradually develops itself until it becomes an egg. Eggoal or the egg-making-machine is meant to question our relationship with nature, ours beliefs, the essence of life, by drawing a parallel between the world of production and the world of consumption, the technology and human being, the biological and the technically modified, from our conditioning to our real needs. Eggoal or (Egg & Goal) which phonetically resembles to the word Equal: chaotic kind of utopia....
