Objects at Hand

2022

Jesmonite sculptures, sizes up to 20x20x25 cm.

The sculptures are made from 3D scans of objects in the office of the reverse engineering company CGISimulations Ltd. The objects were used by Sirisha Shashikanth and her colleagues when they practiced operating a 3D scanner. In this video interview Sirisha explains what the different objects are and how they have been scanned: https://youtu.be/ekQ_xbT24ng

The sculpture series was part of my artistic research PhD project "Unmaking Abstractions" on abstraction in 3D-modeling. See project website: https://www.unmakingabstractions.com/
