The skin acts as an interface and link between spaces of various kinds. Its special characteristic as a surface for intervention is the “inbetween-ness“ and liminality as creators for identity. The artistic creative method and the artistic and performative implementation are the central point of this research. As a result of this processes emerged an installation containing three parts that focused on different aspects of the skin:

1. Re-enactment (video portraits projected on latex): “There used to be a colombian inside this body.“
This video deals with the Space of the Other and presents the skin as a pergammon; like a space where your social imprint is written.
2. 5 portraits (stills printed on latex fabrics): A spacial attempt to represent the Self.
3. PART 3 (video portraits projected on latex): The Other’s Space is a video depicting the result of a comparison between the mechanical properties of the skin and the concept of tactics by Michel de Certau*.

These parts interlace in the contents, visuals and materials. The visual’s performance main character is a male body that is displayed in different poses. The gestures and also the position of these portraits in the installation illustrate the skin as a heterotopic space while suggesting a hint to its mechanical and social functions.There used to be a colombian inside this body.“
