The skin of(f) is a small installation in which a step by step example of the conceptual approach of  W&V is shown.

By means of adhesive tape a 3-dimensional mould of the upper body of Venderbos was created.  The mould was reduced to a 2-dimensional pattern through coupe and cut. This part provided the basic pattern for a garment, in this case a skirt.

The Skin of(f) installation was bought by the Historical museum located in The Schielandhuis, Rotterdam, The Netherlands.
