Art and science: VITAE project - a set of handprints on a moon flower
Some time ago, French painter and sculptor Anilor Banon made a presentation of her ambitious project VITAE (“Life”) in front of the experts and management of Dassault Systèmes. According to Banon, VITAE is a joint project of all mankind; it looks like a flower with a cup, where it is planned to imprint the handprints of the inhabitants of all continents. The author of the project says that he is dedicated to connecting elements of life, creativity and innovation, and the removal of barriers.
The work of the sculptor will be a symbol of the search for a better future by the inhabitants of the planet and will eventually be sent to be installed on the Moon - our natural satellite. The exploration of near-earth space is in full swing; it is clear to everyone that at the lunar research stations, scientists and engineers will do everything possible for life support, and Banon, in turn, wants their personnel to be involved in modern art. At night, the flower will open and close during the day. To do this, it will be covered with an alloy of nickel and titanium, which reacts to a low temperature. In developing the VITAE project, Banon has worked closely with engineers and astrophysicists for several years.
Alain Dugusse, PLM CATIA V5 / V6 expert at Dassault Systèmes, says that he was impressed with the humanism that the Banon project would take, and he decided to support the work on VITAE. Dugusse's experience in designing aerospace vehicles and working with CAD systems helped to explore a number of promising areas for the implementation of VITAE:
Banon provided her sketches for this ...
... and after a detailed discussion a design project was created, with which all parties agreed.
Banon now uses graphic material developed in collaboration with Dassault Systèmes at all events where she presents to the audience the VITAE Project.
In addition, enough time was devoted to other ideas and supporting projects:
For a more detailed acquaintance with the CATIA functionality, we offer you to look at a webinar containing an excerpt of materials about the main improvements and innovations in 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA 2019 . In this review, information about new applications is announced, a number of improvements are considered. The review contains advanced designs and tooling proposals for designers, designers and system architects.

Dugusse's experience in designing aerospace vehicles and working with CAD systems helped to explore a number of promising areas for the implementation of VITAE:
- Splitting (together with Banon) the project into successive stages - from sending a sculpture flower to the cosmos border to its delivery to the moon
- Feasibility Analysis with Dassault Systèmes Solutions
')
- Choosing the best form for a sculptural composition in CATIA applications
Banon provided her sketches for this ...
... and after a detailed discussion a design project was created, with which all parties agreed.
Banon now uses graphic material developed in collaboration with Dassault Systèmes at all events where she presents to the audience the VITAE Project.
In addition, enough time was devoted to other ideas and supporting projects:
- Created in CATIA model VITAE sculpture was printed on a 3D-printer and sent on the first flight to the border of space in a balloon. The launch site was a monument (the work of the same Banon), dedicated to the landing of American paratroopers in 1944 on Omaha Beach in Normandy.
- The French astronaut Tom Peske investigated the behavior in space of a model of a VITAE sculpture delivered to the International Space Station.
- In her sculpture workshop, Banon prepared several copies of the “moon flower” VITAE in the opened form.
- Together, the project logo was developed, equally well readable in both 2D and 3D.
- Prepared by 3D-design stand Banon "Send me to the moon" for the exhibition in Beijing.
- An interactive version of the VITAE sculpture has been developed, on which the collection of handprints will be practiced under terrestrial conditions.
- And, finally, using the 3DEXPERIENCE R2018x platform, VITAE delivery animation to our sky satellite was animated.
