The Golden Touch features gilded objects made during several adult workshops at the DCCA. Participants were invited to gild a meaningful or emotionally relevant object from their homes, thereby willingly surrendering their connection to its original appearance and physicality. The gilding of each item both elevates and solidifies its integral role in the participant’s life, transforming the objects into trophies or small devotional statues. In this way, Travagli facilitates a shift in perception for each participant, differentiating her or his repeated experience of the memento and its original function from the present moment. Each newly gilded object boasts an enthralling relationship with light, riveting our senses and establishing a distant yet reverential proximity to the object.
