Vitrine installation by Ronnie Clarke

screen grab is a video consideration of the nuances of gesture in an online environment. As our world becomes increasingly virtual, this work plays on how we give and perform meaning in virtual and tactile spaces. This work calls for a digital closeness through the immediacy of physical touch; redefining what is tangible and picturing how to hold the virtual closer.
