A impressão da pele num suporte bidimensional como processo para cartografar um corpo
Reimagining clothing pattern-making as an artistic method for translating the physical body into garment form
x
The researcher's own body and skin, used to test the viability of using ink imprints on 2D surfaces to represent a 3D body
participant with proportional physical measurements (Size Euro 50) and a symmetrical posture
The researcher’s subjective, emotional, and sensory experiences throughout the investigation.
The model's perspective
A group of specialists and academics from fields related to the research. The five participants included an expert tailor/designer (Philip Sparks), an artist/researcher (Lara Torres), an anthropologist (Hélène Veiga Gomes), a fashion professor/researcher (Júlia Valle-Noronha), and a dancer/choreographer (Luiz Antunes)

Explore future research directions in Mold Design from a more artistic and exploratory perspective.
Investigate the relationship between the body and its representation in mold design as a research line.
Emphasize the process (as a means of representation) as a central element and develop research that documents and analyzes the gesture of measuring and drawing the body.
