Where Touch Begins, We Are is a visual representation of the tactile sense. A series of slow-motion sequences emphasizes the connection between action and reaction. The video work assembles a collection of gestures on touch sensitive surfaces, ranging from natural elements, such as the Mimosa pudica plant to touch-screens or memory foam.

Curatorial comment:
Nona Inescu’s work concentrates on the interpretation of the post-humanist relations of the human body to the surrounding space and to technology. In her video production Where Touch Begins, We Are, of all the senses, touch is the most directly charged with intimacy. In this way, touch can transfigure and blur the edges of both the individual as well as the objects in an interaction. By building a language based on sensuality, the human body can expand infinitely through touch. (Diana Marincu, Art Encounters 2017)
