A Topography of Touch uses the contrours of my fingerprint map as a starting point to generate a series of virtual forms, which have been translated into physical topographic structures. In these works, I am exploring ways of bringing together two different technologies–ceramics and the computer–connected through tactility, to create forms where connectivity occurs.
