What is the second skin? We have many layers of epidermis on our fantastic (biological) bodies to protect us from the harsh environment of our beloved earth. So why would we need a “second skin” (especially since, biologically speaking, it is far from number two)? Of course clothing keeps us warm (so we can evolve in harsher climates). So why do we wear clothing in Hong Kong (average temperature 25 c)?
Coincidentally, other creative types (other than yours truly) have considered the “second skin” from their own unique vantage points. Here is an up-coming show of two Hong Kong (showing in Singapore) artists worthy of attention: http://www.osagegallery.com/
