"Touch"is a wall installation made up of a series of video stills focused on human interaction. Various social situations are contrasted in visual formal terms as well as for their psychological importance. The video texture or "imprint"on the images forms an additional layer between the viewer and the images that serves to highlight the voyeuristic implications and nature of the video medium. "Touch"examines the power and pull of human interaction in the context of the alienated human condition of contemporary technological society.
