wearable architecture
Custom made electronics,
software, microphone, fresh sod
2010
A sensorial wearable device forcing to smell grass and to hear your own breath.
Equipped with fresh sod and headphones, this mask inhibit the visual system
while enhancing the olfactory by the proximity with soil.
The device defines also a sensory territory constructed by the rhythm of the breath,
which is diffused from the headphones with a 1.5 sec. delay.
The space defined by the sound of breathing is in a state of constant imbalance between
the physical act and its sensory perception and traces an unstable relationship
with the intimate environment the garment reproduces.
