Untouchable
A curtain has interfaced our conversation When it falls neither you will remain nor me!
Hakim Omar Khayyam
Throughout the decade in which smartphone use has been common practice, social relations have taken a different form. In my own experience, I have experienced the outer world from a peephole, and my physical rapport and relationships with people and the world outside has been diminishing bit by bit. Furthermore, I began to realize that the identity of the virtual world users was entirely in discrepancy with their reality in authentic life; as if they were disguised free from predicament and damage. Suddenly, I realized that this issue has been true not only about my relations with the others, but also with nature and outer world. The majority of social network users, including me, were preoccupied with touching each other and our world around us only through an untouchable peephole named Smartphone.
The sketched issues, to some extent, in the “Untouchable” series in the form of interactive work have been reflected. All of the audiences must make use of their mobile phones to interact with the works*, in the same way that the see the actual sources of the artworks nowadays.
