#FEELME

With #feelme, Marijn Bax questions the enormous amount of bare bodies that are shown on social media. Does the digital body have a voice or has it become a marketing tool to satisfy / free our minds? "likes" cannot feel a body, but can caress the ego. How free is a bare body on the web? And is privacy something we can afford in a mental revolution in which the ego grows bigger and bigger. How does it influence the contact with the other person and especially with ourselves? Can we still be satisfied? What would the body look like without the mind? Or without the other?

#feelme, are bodies found on Instagram, printed on soft - thin fabric with slow embroidery. By making scarves I wants the bodies to be touched again - connected to the other.
