Caleb Stein travelled to northern Italy to photograph Robotor, a company based in the Carrara marble quarries that utilises digital schematics and robotic technology to translate marble into sculpture. His photographic essay is a series of intimate portraits of robotic arms and raw marble that offer nuance to today’s debate around artistic authorship and AI and computer-augmented art. The quarry has been mined for millennia, its marble sculpted by generations of artists. Now, technological advancements question conceptions of artistic authorship. Details of the digital schematics that instruct robots to sculpt are printed on sheets of tracing paper throughout the book.
