Photogrammetry Scan : "A Strong Woman of the Country" by Louise Robertson

Another scan from MAGNT (Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory) 2022 NATSIAA (National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards) collection. This piece by Louise Robinson is made from recycled woollen blankets dyed with local Arrernte plants. The colours are amazing. It was a really fun piece to scan and turn into a real-time interactable model used in conjunction with the exhibition.

‘This sculpture has my own story all over it. It is all about me and my family and what keeps my mind relaxed. If you look you can see music and things for having a picnic out bush. These are the things that make me happy. The landscape doesn’t really look this bright and colourful but when I see it in my mind for sewing, this is how I see it. So bright and lovely.’
