In Slice of Touch, pain becomes a medium of communication. Red cotton threads, guided by intricate stitches, deftly weave through the surface of latex sheets—a material commonly used in crafting BDSM garments. The artwork appears to ooze plump beads of blood, evoking an image of needles piercing skin and the rapid spread of pain. If someone touches the “skin” of this piece, it responds instantaneously, more swiftly than the most advanced electronic communication technologies. It seems almost alive, its surface quivering gently, as if breathing, before settling back into stillness. This experience only manifests when the body of the viewer making the touch is physically present with the artwork. It is this sense of immediacy that defines the essence of sensation—intimately tied to the individual, inseparable from the flesh. Artificial intelligence can never comprehend pain; it remains an exclusive privilege of beings with flesh and blood.

在《触觉的切片》中，疼痛成为了一种沟通媒介。红色棉线随着细密的针脚，灵巧地在乳胶片（一种用于制作BDSM胶衣的材料）表面上下穿梭。作品似是渗出了一颗颗饱满的血珠。观者不禁由此联想到尖针刺破肌肤，痛感迅速蔓延。如果有人触碰这件作品的皮肤，它会瞬间作出回应，比最先进的电子通讯技术更为敏捷。它像是活物，表面如同呼吸般轻微颤动，直到重新归于平静。这种体验只有当发出触碰行为的观者的身体与作品同时在场时才得以实现。正是这种“切身性”赋予了感觉的本质，它始终与个体紧密相连，无法脱离肉身独立存在。人工智能永远不懂疼痛，那是血肉之躯独享的特权。
