TOUCH ME NOT is a kinetic sound installation about observation and environmental interaction. As visitors approach and enter its private space, the sculpture closes, shrinks, and falls silent.
Our Role Own Artwork // Year 2019
TOUCH ME NOT is a kinetic sculpture reflecting on observation and environmental interaction. The work responds to the spatial presence of visitors and changes its physical and sonic behaviour accordingly.
As visitors move closer and enter its private space, the sculpture shrinks, closes itself off, and remains silent. Distance becomes part of the encounter, shaping how the work behaves and how it can be experienced.
The installation reflects on the idea that observation influences what is being observed. The audience does encounter a reactive presence whose behaviour changes through proximity. Sound operates as part of this behavioural logic, moving between audible activity and silence.
The project was developed as an original artwork combining kinetic movement and sound within an interactive installation format.
