Touch Points is an ongoing collaboration with Artist Iso Marcus that explores the questions: How do we know a place? What materials define relationship with place? Touch Points follows the pace of relationship, with intentions to foster a longitudinal collaboration that cycles in iteration. The initial Touch Points project was an archeological and somatic dig that occurred while attending the Social Studies residency in Colusa, CA (2019). Areas of inquiry focused on understanding our somatic response to soil, as well as establishing connection with place through a collaborative sensory experience. Touch Points II ORB, involved exploring temporality, burring cylindrical clay orbs that contain messages from past, present, and future realities. Touch Points III: Things are Weirder Than We Think They Are, followed curated readingspaired with material practice and culminated in an elaborate dinner party.
