ANDRÉ PUBLIC SCULPTURES
3D Scan - 9m Mandela Sculpture - Union Buildings - Pretoria - 2013
Due to the time constraint and looming installation date, we decided that the only viable option was to make use of modern technology in the up-scaling of the 9 meter sculpture. The foundry (Sculpture casting Services) also have the fascility to 3D scan the 2.25m sculpture and then digitally upscaling it to 9m. The process of scanning took about 2.5 hours and special attention was given to the detailed areas like hands & face.
