DON’T TOUCH, PLEASE
To improve the quality of relationships with ourselves and with the people we love, dialogue is very important: it must be clear, sincere, non-contradictory and free from impossible demands. This work demonstrates it by a paradox: a white canvas with white dots relief, which seem arranged randomly. At first glance, or even a second, this work seems incomprehensible: like all contemporary art, when we do not know the code.
But those who know the braille can discover that on this canvas is a kind request that often accompanies the exhibited works: "Do not touch, please". But it is an invitation which it is impossible to join: to know that it is written “do not touch " you must actually have already touched. Those who receive a communication of this type feel a deep discomfort, as they feel deprived of the opportunity to choose. This is frustrating and irritating and has a negative impact in the relationships. With ourselves and with the people we love, we must absolutely avoid any impossible demands.
