fashion design hussein chalayan has teamed up with level vodka to produce a new installation which will begin a
world tour beginning this month in mexico city. 'the level tunnel' is a 15m long, 5m high installation that can be
experienced from the exterior or blindfolded on the inside. chalayan has developed an experience of the senses,
working with a number of different materials as well as playing with scent, touch and sound. the viewing is
blindfolded and led into the installation, where they are confronted with sound created by a flute made from a
vodka bottle. further on, a breeze carries the scent of lemon and cedar as the visitors moves along the leather
coated railings. a heart monitor is fitted onto the visitor and a display on the outside projects their heartbeat to
external viewers. after mexico city the installation will move to athens and paris.
