Dialogue on the Tip of the Finger
‘Dialogue on the Tip of the Finger’ is the work that has existed only in my mind for a long time.
As Braille is a critical method of communication for the blind, the work also endeavours to be a methods of communication.
I am sure that it wouldn’t have been possible for me to create and present the work without the help of those who understand the true meaning of this work.
Knowing that the life of a modern man is filled with competitions like the racehorse which is only allowed to run forward with his eyes half-covered with blinkers,
it never is easy to understand others and to live a humble life.
Nevertheless, I can only hope that the little dots in this work can relay the warmth of the lives of others at least when we put our fingers on them.

This study focuses on how to read textual expressions by using tactual & visual
senses. Each installation works by an input signal from a touch sensor. Spectators can
see texts and pictures, and hear the sounds
by tactual input behavior. |
Through this interactive process,
we can understand how the blind may feel.
