The Art of Painsuring
Unity
I created a Tribe based on the massaging experience, which heals the body from the physical and emotional pain. Members of the Tribe experience a constant feeling of pain and pleasure. At the first you have a set of objects, 2 meters brushes with different surfaces that help you to massage your body. The movement of the cow, which is used to produce coconut oil, activates brushes. Oil is the essential part of the massaging experience, which is also used to increase level of pain and pleasure. The next stage is based on the experience of two people massaging each other as well as using surfaces of the walls. During the last stage a group of people simultaneously massaging each other and the building, where human body is forced to interact with the building. By blurring boundaries between architecture and human body, the building becomes an extension of the tribe.
