Description: Envisaged as a mirror image of La peau du monde 1, La peau du monde 2 is divided into five vertical compositions installed at varying distances depending on the location, which can
also stand alone as works in their own right.
The “honeycomb” surface reveals an all-new fabric with a relief pattern. The textile fragments seem to each melt into the next, producing a blurry optical sensation, almost Impressionist in its feel. Hovering between scales, fur, feather and bark, La peau du monde 2 projects a distillation of life itself, in constant motion.
