The *Skin Monochromes* series, originating in 1991, is a body of work that gives the impression of paintings made from human skin. These artworks consist of multiple layers of paint in a wide range of colors, creating a tactile quality that blends painting and sculpture. The glossy and subtly convex surfaces make them appear more like objects than traditional flat paintings, embodying elements of somberness and beauty. These "anti-paintings" deviate from conventional norms, representing both individual and collective human experiences. By using the skin as a metaphor, they explore psychological and sensory dimensions, merging physicality with emotional symbolism.
