What is skin? It is the shell, that fragile protective outside layer. It is what is first to be seen and read by others.

Peel away the various layers and you will meet the human, the person, the soul. It is this being who, like the skin it inhabits, is ever changing, shifting and growing.

Here I touch on the universal concept that like the skin of our bodies we are all unique, beautifully flawed and ever - evolving. Every moment and every experience is a chisel that shapes and refines us while we wander this earth.

My mixed media technique that I applied also strongly contributed to the idea of the individual as multi-layered, not only in a physical sense but in a mental and spiritual capacity as well.
