In Iowa, artist Jill Wells presented the first 3D model of a mural created as a result of cooperation with our organization.
The idea to set up a 3D model in America also came about after the artist got acquainted with our Art in Passing project at the annual Zero Project conference in February 2023. On a panel at a conference at the United Nations in Vienna, Wales participated together with representatives of our organization in a discussion on the topic of inclusion in the field of street art and then became interested in the 3D model project.
In cooperation with Jill, we worked for several months to prepare the model for her mural, from 3D printing to Braille translation.
The artist plans to continue installing new 3D models of the mural, and wants this to become an accepted practice of presenting art both outdoors and indoors.
Jill Wells spent the past year as an artistic fellow at the Harkin Institute for Public Policy and Civic Engagement at Drake University. The 3D mural model project is the result of her engagement as a collaborator.
