Touch Assignment




The skin has eyes

 Some people use acupuncture on their feet to heal body parts only with a pinch of a needle. Although there is no evidence proving this to be true, it is clear that feet have an incredible amount of nerves. Most feet have developed harder surfaces due to our constant grind with different textures on the floor, however this doesn't dismiss them from guiding us as our eyes do. By constantly touching everything that surrounds us they act as constant sensors of our lives. 


A hand is so powerful yet so delicate.  With one gesture it can change everything. They can do acts of kindness and emotional support or as a weapon of destruction with a simple handshake. It is so smooth that we can feel and touch everything, but also turn it into an instrument of survival and strength. Here, the hand could hold the butterfly or crush it in  just a second.
