Ali Padilla arrived in Chicago from Albuquerque, New Mexico. He received a bachelor’s degree in Fine Art from the University of New Mexico. Currently, he is doing his internship at the National Museum of Health where conducts research for various projects and creates content/assets for museum exhibits. Ali is currently a graduate student in the Biomedical Visualization program at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where he studies building skeletons and making artificial limbs (ocular prosthesis, nasal prosthesis, ear prosthesis, finger and fingernail prosthesis).
The prosthesis design and anaplastology by Ali Padilla
The prosthesis design and anaplastology (a branch of medicine dealing with the prosthetic rehabilitation of the injured face or body) are his favorite subjects. Ali Padilla constructs a very realistic prosthesis using patient CT data (3DMD body scanner) and 3D modeling programs (3Ds Max). He makes prosthetic eyes, prosthetic noses, prosthetic ears and prosthetic fingers by using digital sculpting and painting techniques.
