"We leave thousands of traces. Our fingerprints are in databases, our faces are in algorithms, our steps are in geolocation. We produce traces, but access to them, control and the right to delete them does not belong to us. A touch has become a function, and the value of a physical trace is disappearing, but do we believe that it matters?"

- Yuri Shakhoian

When the body is data that we do not control, the artist captures the transition point: the moment when a person is still touching, but no longer believes that it matters.

Today, we are exploring a phenomenon that may disappear tomorrow – soon there will be no space left outside the digital fence. A material with inbuilt sensors is already being developed today and the touch will be recorded before it happens. And the day after tomorrow, we won't know if we touched it at all or if it was our digital copy.

"Eternity Game" is a performance where an individual act records a collective transition point. Participants are present at the same evening, but enter the mask one at a time and are left alone with the accumulated memory of other people's hands and add their own. The mask becomes evidence that the question of the value of a physical trace was also asked by the auction lot, which cannot be repeated.
