Skin Carpet

October 22 – December 19 2021

An architectural proposal

FOS

For his first exhibition in France, the artist FOS presents Skin Carpet, a vast enclosed space composed mainly of hand-colored canvases that precariously reproduce human lungs. The display, of our respiratory system, is the plan of a human interior according to a disproportionate body.

The pre-existing biological processes of this organ mechanically absorb nutrients and oxygen, and exhale air into the surrounding space to enter other bodies, anyone. Air is the primordial substance of architecture, which frames it.

FOS connects art, design and architecture in a hybrid form he calls "Social Design".
