THE SERIES OF SEVEN: VOCABULARY OF TOUCH [Pins]
The Pins explore the verbal and emotional layers of human connection. They form a tactile vocabulary, revealing words through touch. Each piece is shaped from a fingertip, its black surface concealing a word until warmth reveals it. Acting as sensory catalyst, the Pins require an offering of biological energy in exchange for meaning. Together, they trace the narrative arc of human intimacy, mapping a journey from the first boundary to the final dissipation.
The work is part of the STRUCTURAL INTIMACY: SOMATIC EXCHANGE project, which was nominated for the Graham Hughes Award and the Chris Massey Award 2026 at Royal College of Art
