"Touch me, Touch Me... please"

(soap, hardwood 23/12cm, 2018-2019)

People used my artwork as handsoap.

Each person documented the crumbling and handling of one of the 4 artworks during a period of time.

I've chosen 4 different situations in which the soap will be used. A family, personal friends, an organization, strangers...

'Touch me, Touch Me ... please' is an investigation on how  people will handle my work.

Touch: 1. come into or be in contact with. 2. handle in order to interfere with, alter, or otherwise affect. 3. affect or concern. 4. produce feelings of affection, gratitude, or sympathy in.

Every week I will update and add pictures, documenting the process.
