Touch, For the First Time

Touch, For the First Time Concept Drawing

In Touch, For the First Time, a pair of self-designed hand trackers – one for the left hand, the other for the right hand – are given to two dancers separated by distance.

It could be physical distance, when we are apart from our loved ones.

It could be mental distance, when we first interact with a stranger.

It could be the uncrossable distance, when we miss those who reside in the other world.

When one dancer touches their own body, the shape of their hand takes the form of sunlight, shining on the corresponding part of the other dancer’s body.
