"Se toucher toi" first exhibition at Panorama 5 (http://www.panorama5.net).

"Se toucher toi" is an installation in two spaces of exhbition and on Internet.The device consists of a play with three:one enters a part and one sees the video image of a calm landscape.One then handles the mouse placed in the vicinity and the hands of a man and a woman start to be cherished.We play with this representation of the contact made possible by the displacement of our mouse.Then the two hands are concealed with our capacity and are driven independently of our manual movement.It is that elsewhere, on Internet or in another geographical space, a double of the installation functions and that another person handles the device.¶We thus see the result of this operation, understanding in return that when we had seen our own displacement, other spaces diffused it.We take "the hand " on each place.
