This series is part of the development of the "Holding hands" project which collects all photos taken during the meetings with my mother in the last years of her life.
Series description and interpretation
Touches
All those works characterised by a touch of colour added with the point of my finger or hand belong to this series.
Hands
Since May 2017 my daily meetings with my mother have been recorded in a repetitive photographic image depicting the contact between my hand and hers. My obsessive way of accumulating everything, of not letting anything I find important go, and of not letting people I love go, has led me to capture this gesture every time she and I see each other.
