Abstract:
My thesis uncovers the plurality of experiencing touch when visually interacting with
artworks. Tactility as stimulation extends beyond the material despite the fact that it occurs on
our skin. It is a mental perception that can be evoked by a memory, a visual or even a sound. The
focus in this research is to present the haptic as an inseparable part of sensibility rather than an
isolated stimulation, which expands the potentials of sensorial cognition. By playing with
materials and processes in objects that invite our touch, this body of work questions beyond the
physical and visual contact into this communication between our Haptic sense and the object as
an experience.
