The workshop "Surfaces of contact" was the first result of the institucional cooperation between Peter Behrens School of Arts at the Hochschule Düsseldorf and DAU / PUC-Rio. The workshop was based on the concept of „skin“ not limited to the body but could be applied to tectonic strategies ranging in scale from object, jewelry over clothes to buildings. The course aimed to speculate about the relation of skin as a surface of contact in connection to the body / object /building / urban space and focus on its performative and mediating potentials in order to generate personal, social and cultural spaces.
