Zoochosis (tripotriggers)


A series of handheld sculptures designed to be touched and manipulated as a novel type of fidget gadget. Their shapes are intended to induce trypophobia, a visceral aversion to clusters of small holes and cavities associated with involuntary responses to signs of disease, contamination, or biological threat.
