"My obsessional habit of collecting materials and objects and swapping their skins by embellishing with a repetition of another material - has a strong tie to the exercise of “matière”, which was being taught at The Bauhaus when Josef Albers arrived as a tutor.
Matière addresses a student’s haptic and phenomenological capabilities through very straightforward manipulations and combinations of material, the matière became more important when Albers was running the course, and even more central when Albers reworked the course at Black Mountain College."
