Using The Five skins of Man by Hundertwasser as an inspiration, a drawing methodology that is both performative and forensic in nature, adopting the role of a Scientific Experimenter has been developed. This role allows one to explore materiality through conducting experiments with elements important in specific rituals such as Blood, Soil, and Herbs. Through the re-enactment of this ritual and data collection, I employ a method of sampling and analysis through a series of soil tests, blood splatter analysis on artificial skins and through elixir combinations in the format of a herbarium, analysing their interactions with the three skin conditions I have identified for this ritual which are the blood\u2019s interaction with: &#8211; skin of the body which is interpreted as an intimate scale, at 1:1 &#8211; skin of dress, which may be translated to a wall surface &#8211; and skin of the earth which is a translated to a ground condition. &#8211; and the tactics used in my drawings have given rise to ways in which I can approach measurement and scale in my proposition. The tactics being used as part of the research are as follows: Line drawing, pouring, rubbing, re-enacting. The rules extracted from these tactics are of measurement, time, movement, sensory and collection of scientific data. The architectural proposition intends on serving as \u201c skin as a holder of memory\u201d for the rituals being studied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video alignwide\"><video controls src=\"https:\/\/gsa.ac.za\/summer-show\/video\/Image 1_ Mankitiya Ritual Khauoe TL Unit 24 2023-compressed.mp4\"><\/video><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mankitiya Ritual.
