and most of all I long for your touch
2014

”Last year two things happened to me:

I fell in love with someone.

I fell in love with someone who lives on the other side of the world.”

and most of all I long for your touch is a project that looks at my personal life and the long-distance relationship I was in at the time of creating the work. Rather than a direct documentation of a relationship, the work is a visualisation of my inner feelings and my longing for my lover’s absent body and about the experiences, memories, hopes and fears that came with the relationship.
