Question

Define the term tactility. Looking at the sculpture shown above, how would you describe its tactility?

Answer 1

Tactility is the sense of touch, or being able to feel/touch. This sculpture shows tactility because you can see some smooth and rough surfaces in the sculpture which represent the sensation of touch.

Answer 2

Tactility is the human ability to feel the object through the touch. You can describe a figure just touching it, analyzing the lines, the curves (or the absence of them), the shape, the proportions among several other elements. In the case of the sculpture of the figure, I believe that has a soft, curved, non-linear and tender tactility. You can follow the curves, the shapes, and feel all the structure just with its curves.
