Medium: Teabags and threads
240 x 280 mm
Skin Affairs extends the exploration of A Book Is A Body, inspired by the first chapter's concept of skin enveloping the body to provide structure and form. This artistic book is crafted entirely from teabags, resembling dried skin. Layered sheets of teabags are bound on both sides, symbolising the way skin wraps around our bodies. To open the book, one must tear from the center, an act that evokes the process of peeling back layers to reveal what lies beneath the skin.
