About Skin කලා ස්ථාපනය

මෙම කලා ස්ථාපනය සැහැල්ලු ස්වාභාවික ද්‍රව්‍යයකින් (ගස් කොළවල කඳන්) සෑදූ වාතවේදී මානව රූප 3කින් සමන්විත වන අතර, ඒවා නිදහස් අවකාශයේ පාවෙන බවක් පෙනේ. ඒවා ශරීරයේ ව්‍යුහ විද්‍යාත්මක හැඩය අනුගමනය කරන ඇඳුම්වලට සමාන වේ. කොළ කඳන් ඇත්ත වශයෙන්ම ගස් කොළයක සංසරණ පද්ධතියයි, එනම් ඒවාට ජලය සපයා ඒවා ජීවමාන තබන පද්ධතියයි. මෙම රූප, ඒවායේ පාරදෘශ්‍යතාවයත් සමඟ, එකවරම සර්පයා විසින් එය ඉතා තද වූ පසු අතහරින සමට ද සමාන වේ.

About the A' Design Award යකඩ සම්මානය

Skin කලා ස්ථාපනය යනු A' Design Award යකඩ සම්මානය දිනූ නිර්මාණයකි; හොඳින් නිර්මාණය කළ කෘතිවලින් අපේක්ෂිත වෘත්තීය සහ කාර්මික අවශ්‍යතා සපුරාලන හොඳ නිර්මාණ සඳහා පිරිනමන ගෞරවනීය පිළිගැනීමකි. යකඩ ජයග්‍රාහී නිර්මාණ ඒවායේ නිර්මාණකරුවන්ගේ මහත් දක්ෂතාව, ඉහළ විශේෂඥතාව, විශේෂඥ අවබෝධය සහ නිර්මාණශීලී හැකියාව පෙන්වයි. Skin කලා ස්ථාපනය ඉහළින් අගය කරන, ප්‍රශංසා කරන සහ ආදරය කරන ප්‍රායෝගික සහ නවීන නිර්මාණයක් වනු ඇතැයි අපේක්ෂා කෙරේ. Skin කලා ස්ථාපනය එහි සවිස්තරාත්මකභාවය වෙනුවෙන් ගෞරවයට පාත්‍ර වන අතර ජීවන ගුණාත්මකභාවය වැඩිදියුණු කර ලෝකය වඩා හොඳ තැනක් කිරීමට උපකාරී වන ලෙස නිර්මාණය කර ඇත.

Unique Properties
This art installation is composed of 3 airy human figures made of light natural material (skeletons of tree leaves), which seem to float in free space. They resemble costumes that follow the anatomical shape of the body. Leaf skeletons actually are the circulatory system of a tree leaf, that is, the system that supplies them with water and keeps them alive. These figures, with their transparency, at the same time resemble the skin that the snake sheds after it becomes too tight.
Dimensions & Packaging
3 pieces:
50cm x 20cm x 160cm
40cm x 22cm x 140cm
50cm x 20cm x 165cm

Production Technology
This installation is made of natural tree leaf skeletons. These leaf skeletons were colored and aligned along the human figure to accentuate the anatomical shape.
Design Challenge
The process required material testing of adaptability and durability, as the material was not usual and technique of creating the objects needed to be established. Most challenging was to find the bonding material and technique of binding that will allow to create anatomically correct but airy objects. The result was achieved wit transparent fast drying glue and the anatomy of the leaf itself, more precisely the stronger parts of its skeleton that created three-dimensional net-structure, which helped the objects to keep their shape while remaining transparent and airy.
Research
This project includes new and unique technique of creating textile-like ethereal objects that are not clothes, but sculptures made of natural material - leaf skeletons. The process required material testing of adaptability and durability, various bonding materials testing and several prototypes were made until the right technology and technique was established.
Inspiration
These figures resemble costumes that follow the anatomical shape of the body, and lack limbs and heads similar to the remains of ancient sculptures. With their transparency, at the same time resemble the skin that the snake sheds after it becomes too tight. The form of the human is present as a remnant, as a testimony of his previous state, and he did not disappear, but grew, transformed, overcoming the challenges.
Project Duration
The art Installation was created for the thematic exhibition of 3 Macedonian artists, Maja Kirovska, Ana Ivanovska and Hristina Zafirovska, titled "Regeneration", that was shown in the Youth Cultural Centre in Skopje from 18 to 30 of October 2023.
Operation Flow
The art installation Skin consists of 3 lightweight ethereal objects that are hung on clothes hanger in the space of the gallery at height and position of real person. They are human sized and positioned in relation one to another as coherent non coherent group depending of the characteristics of the gallery. They move freely as they hand due to air circulation thus receiving dynamic characteristic.
