The Jericho Skull
2017
This scan of ancient human remains was produced for Sally Fletcher, to complement the CT scans she had produced for a room 3 exhibition that focused on the skull. I scanned this with Jennifer Wexler, just using a DSLR and mobile phone and processed it in Agisoft overnight.
A plastered human skull; the skull was taken as the base and the features of the face were modelled on it in plaster. One eye is made from a bivalve shell divided in two. The other has one, smaller, complete shell in place and is missing its twin.
