ENGINEERING & DIGITAL MANUFACTURING

Bridging artistic vision and mechanical precision, Oliver O. Casillas leverages his engineering background to prototype, fabricate, and refine physical objects across multiple scales. Trained as a mechanical engineer and experienced in international research labs, he integrates CAD modeling, CNC machining, and additive manufacturing into his creative workflow. His projects span from functional installations and modular structures to digitally fabricated art pieces and data-driven design experiments. With an emphasis on sustainable materials, technical adaptability, and open-source tools, Oliver transforms complex ideas into tangible forms — where art meets engineering with purpose and accuracy.
