"Skin is the proximity of self and world. It is the point of intensity where everyday, unmeaningful pleasure happens, such a thermoception, or where the world is unmade, in nociception. It is also the surface upon wich most forms of prejudice and terror are performed. Skin is where tattoos appear, but also where meaning is read, gender,age, class, race and 'normalcy' enacted."
