About Skins 1 and 2
Skins 2 and 1 are montages of cow leather brought together by winding threads that successfully negotiate each piece’s flaws to realize a unified whole. It’s a union of purpose, a union of uniquely individual pieces, some of which redistribute bits and pieces to fill up holes in others to eventually realize a unified and complete whole, a metaphor that reflects on each of us. Skins 2 is made of ‘Zambian animals,’ while Skins 1 is made of ‘Norwegian animals.’
Note: Skins 1 was recently acquired by the National Museum in Oslo
