The skin - protection and at the same time a symbol of seduction and vulnerability.

The starting point for this work was the search for sensually perceptible surfaces, for structures and forms that should lie on the skin. The interplay of skin with other materials and their haptics, play of light and appearance were central aspects to be explored. Different implementations in synthetic resin were tested in a playful and process-oriented manner, exploring its limits and possibilities.
Placement on the body were explored and the objects began to nestle against the body, constrict it or support it. Objects that conveyed fragility, but also pride, strength and protection.
