"The Liberator" As the winning piece of MTV's "The Exhibit" reality TV competition, Baseera Khan solidified her reputation as a visionary artist. Her 3D printed sculpture, "The Liberator," created in 2022, captivated audiences with its striking aesthetic and thought-provoking concept. As a pivotal part of Khan's ongoing "Bust of Canons" series, this sculpture pushed the boundaries of art and technology, offering a fresh perspective on the fusion of contemporary and historical themes.


Employing iMakr Studio's advanced 3D printing techniques, each section of the sculpture was printed using high-quality materials. The resulting printed components served as the a tangible representation of Khan's artistic concept. Once printed, the individual pieces were assembled to bring "The Liberator" to life.
