Artist Statement:


    This work is, precisely, a “picture to touch!” The print, which uses expressions of principal color constituents, is installed in a frame with sensors. When a person touches the print, the sensors perceive which location has been touched; make elements vibrate through data available on the hue, chroma, and value of the related elements; and give information to the fingertip of the person. The actual roughness of the unrefined paper and the vibration of the image data are mixed with the fingertip data, and the viewer experiences a remarkable fusion of sense through sight and sense of reality.
