Tactile Memory
Interactive artwork, 2025

In Tactile Memory, parts of the body: hands, back, face are covered with projected textures of tree bark, creating a layered skin that is both natural and digital.
As viewers touch the screen, the image shifts and morphing in real time. These distortions suggest that touch carries weight leaving behind traces, like wrinkles in skin, rings in a tree, or glitches in code.

The piece reflects on how memory lives in surfaces in the roughness of bark, the softness of skin, and now in digital layers. Today, our lives unfold across screens and sensors, where every touch, click, or gesture leaves a mark. By blending these textures and making them responsive to touch, Tactile Memory invites to consider how closely connected people to nature, to each other, and to the technologies that now hold pieces of our presence in both physical and digital worlds.
