Skin is a work manifested in the form of an exhibition. In this work I asked myself questions on the overlapping aspects between the emotional volume of a person and the volume of the exhibition space. I wanted to work together with the guards of the institution who are the caretakers of the space. A crib in the first space shows a maquette of the second exhibition space which is below, earrings in the form of the stairs connecting the two spaces are worn by the caretakers. The caretakers always address the crib and the space with 'it' being ambiguous about either addressing a space or a child.
Special thanks to the guards of CENTRALE.lab, Hélène Webers, Thibaut Espiau, Matteo de Blassio, Pim Heerkens and Koen van der Heijden.
