Clotheslines

Skin Dance by Roel van Timmeren

2100 pieces of recycled clothing hang from 210 laundry racks on ten floors creating a painting in motion.

The sequence in which the colours were hung stem from a series of paintings named “Tango de la Peau”. These came about by an experiment which merged paint, colour and foundation. Strips of burlap were painted in 11 different colours and then woven into a painting thus creating a pattern.
