The week of July 12, 2021, Sanford Biggers, MASK Consortium and Chazen staff worked to research and scan the Ball sculpture and about two dozen other objects in the Chazen collection and plan other elements of the project. The Chazen’s prep staff set up a studio in the Elvehjem Building’s Mayer Gallery and MASK Consortium members scanned permanent-collection objects selected by Biggers using hand-held 3D scanners that feed data into a program that creates an exact representation of the object on the computer screen.
