Lost in touch is a semi-analogue installation designed to provide a more
independent method with finding little moments of relaxation within a healthcare
environment. This work, which reflects on the healthcare crisis in which the
Netherlands finds itself, offers people living with dementia a more independent
way to deal with loneliness, restlessness, and insecurity. The work Lost In
Touch is comprised of 3 objects named BOB, TIMMY and SARAH. Who
individually have their own quality of companionship to offer to their user. The
work Lost In Touch is created with the help and feedback of elderly living with
dementia.
