There are 100 million people around the world in need of artificial limbs. In Togo, some of them have been waiting for almost 20 years. To help solve this problem, Handicap International developed 3D printing technology for prosthetics in an aim to improve access and reduce the wait for war victims stranded in dangerous or inaccessible zones.
Famous broken statues around Paris, including the famous Venus de Milo, and various others in the Jardin des Tuileries and the Parc Monceau were fitted with fake 3D prosthetic limbs for everyone to see. Over a period of 24 hours, these statues became the spokespersons for our message: No more bodies in the world should have to wait this long to be repaired.
