SKINNING TRUE MESH_PHOTO SERIES/STM_gbg is a collaboration between Linnea Bågander, Nicole Neidert and Jim De Block. The photo series is part of the SKINNING TRUE MESH collaboration wish stems from a curiosity about the aesthetic impact of digital and 3D-animated media on analog body-centered media; choreography and fashion design.

Prior to the the photo series, a film series: STM16:9ftt, was created. One question that arose during the process of the film series and its characters was; What would it mean to place these seemingly surreal "animated" forms in an organic naturalistic environment? This became the starting point for a new work where Linnea x Nicole explored the contexts of exteriors around Gothenburg. It resulted in the photo series STM_gbg captured by Jim De Block.

SKINNING TRUE MESH_Collection is an exhibition of a collection of works created under the title "Skinning True Mesh". The work is based on an exploration of the aesthetic impact of digital and 3D-animated media on the analog body-centered media; choreography and fashion design. Between 2018-2021, the collaboration has resulted in several projects, at Temporary Stabilisations in Gamlestan a selection is exhibited that includes photography, film and installation.
​
SKINNING TRUE MESH_collection consists of the film series 'Skinning True Mesh 16: 9 full time texture', which was created together with the filmmaker Joakim Envik Karlsson. The series used a blanc film studio to get as close to the digital expression as possible.

As a natural continuation Nicole x Linnea exploed how hese seemingly surreal "animated" forms would be explored in an organic naturalistic environment.  It resulted in the photo series STM_gbg captured by Jim De Block.

In addition they exhibit a couple of tactile memories from their various collaborations with SKINNING TRUE MESH.
