Jewelry Scans for The Washington Post
In a unique collaboration aimed at capturing the essence and intricacy of Native American craftsmanship, MYND Workshop partnered with the Washington Post to bring the art of Jaylyn Gough to a wider audience through the power of 3D scanning technology. The project centered around several of Gough's creations, including finely crafted jewelry pieces and an ornate pottery vase, each telling a story of heritage and artistic expression.Explore the interactive Washington Post article featuring MYND’s 3D scans
Utilizing advanced 3D scanning techniques, MYND Workshop meticulously captured every detail of these artworks, from the delicate textures of the pottery's surface to the fine engravings and gemstone settings of the jewelry. This process involved a careful arrangement of lighting and scanning angles to ensure that even the most subtle features were preserved in the digital replicas.

The resulting 3D models were more than just digital twins; they were an invitation to explore Gough's work as if holding them in hand, turning them over to appreciate every angle and nuance. This immersive experience was made possible through an interactive article by the Washington Post, which allowed readers to engage with Gough's pieces in a way that traditional photography could never convey.
