Negligee (Slipping Into the Skin of Another)

Negligee (Slipping Into the Skin of Another) uses a transparent plastic-like material that results from a facial peel-off mask. This bizarre beauty product picks up and retains the detailed impression of texture and hairs on one's skin. I essentially cover my entire body with the product. Once dry, I peel it off in one large "hide" so that I have sheets of "fabric" to work with in constructing the sculptures for the series.
