The use of modern materials and technologies in the development and production of forged art objects

The article discusses the trends and features of the use of modern materials, as well as technological solutions in the field of the development and production of forged art objects. Indeed, modern raw materials and technologies open up new horizons for artistic forging, turning it into an actual tool for forming an aesthetic environment. At the same time, despite the rapid progress, several contradictions are associated with the choice of materials, optimization of technologies, applied techniques, and methods, as well as preserving the value of products (in an artistic context). The study aims to identify the possibilities of integrating material and technological developments into the process of creating forged art objects, taking into account their functional and aesthetic features. This paper analyzes approaches to the selection of materials, including stainless steel, composites, textured coatings, etc. D., and also studied innovative options, in particular, the tools and potential of 3D printing, and heat treatment. The conclusions formulated in the article emphasize the importance of achieving and maintaining a balance between traditions and the latest production methods. The above will be useful for craftsmen in the field of forging, designers, architects, and researchers who study the nuances of applying breakthrough developments in art
