Together with Mariana Constanti (Paphos, 1977), they created a 'pressure suit' - an item of clothing that ranges from a wedding dress to a dressing gown. The garment is made of fabric in a light skin tone, with many holes, present and gone, present and absent. Precisely these present a feeling of disintegration and fragility, and remind of a second skin. A pressure suit is used in cases of burns, to "tame" the new skin that grows in places where there is no skin and no protection.
