Project: 4th Skin 2014

"4th Skin" is a comment on the subjects of ephemerality, self-exploration, illusion of control and manipulation, using the point of view to challenge the viewer's perception of reality.

The identity and memory of one’s body and its presence in a given context interact with the limits of the movements and the technology. The human body becomes an interface for interaction and surface for visual expression in the same time. Interdependence between performer, filming device and body projection, reveals another perspective on the relation between oneself and the world around.

Video content, captured real-time with a wireless camera is projected back on the performer’s body, creating a layer of multimedia “skin”, making visible what we see, touch or reflect. It is the "skin" created by our whole body & mind experience in relation with the world around.

“4th Skin” has been realized and premiered as real-time intermedia dance performance for one performer & a camera, at the National Museum for Contemporary Art in Romania, March 2014.
A previous version for 2 performers was presented at Ars Electronica Festival 2013.
