Project: Conversations
I feel that relationships, today, have lost their intimacy. Through this project I will attempt to connect with people on an emotional level. To achieve this, I will invite people to allow me to take casts of the backs of both their hands. The participant will keep one cast as a gift, while I will keep the other. The participants will also be requested to recommend someone else for the project, thus forming a chain. In the end, I will display the casts as an archive of the ephemeral conversations that ensued between me and the participants.
