Dandelion Skin Series/ Visual Sample: Amor by Tatiana Mesa Pajan
This object intervention documents a poetic gesture: to cover porcelain objects no bigger than 11 inches with dandelions. My own hands change as they cover the objects, like a snake’s skin shedding onto things that will continue to shed. Once the dandelion layer is complete, rubbing becomes impossible. It is about hard things, like porcelain and stones, that can never be touched again. The objects are preserved inside glass domes with marble bases.
Please note that the Dandelion Skin Series are open edition. Each is individually produced as an intervention on a found object. Amor (pictured) is an example in the series, not what you will receive.
