Marc Fornes is an architect and subject matter expert in computer science, investigating design though codes and computational protocols. Produced under his label Thevermany™ his extensive body of research - addressing ways to describe complex curvilinear self-supported surfaces into series of flat elements - is constantly reinventing the field of Computational Skinning. As Thevermany™, Marc has designed and built an extensive body of large-scale, highly-organic and self-supported structures situated between the field of art and architecture, including permanent installations in France, Canada and the United States. Some of these have been acquired and are in the permanent collections of the Centre Pompidou; the FRAC Centre in Orleans, France; and in many private collections. He has exhibited work at the Guggenheim (Contemplating the Void), Art Basel Miami, and Art Paris.
