Open Heart

Open Heart explores matters, which seem important, concerning, and not always recognizable – the relation to our own heart and the heart of others.

The art pieces are 6 pillars, which invite to stimulate both the body, the senses, and the intellect in an aesthetic manner, in order to realize the capacities and qualities of the heart.

The pillars consist of

  • Art portraits and statements from participants of different ages
  • 400 children’s` drawings “This is what my Heart looks like”, combined with children’s` interpretations of well-known proverbs.
  • Fact boxes with QR-codes “Did you know…”, explaining about science and theories about, what the heart is capable of beside of being af pump.
  • Art pieces with interactive exercises of reflection

With the pillars there is also a sound fil with changing sounds of:

  • A calm heartbeat
  • The composition “Human Divine”  composed by musician and sound healer Davor Bozic
  • Soothing reading of poems of the heart, read by the artist

I have collaborated with graphic designer Trine Kirketerp regarding the setting up of the artworks. Read more about her here: www.GRAFlab.dk
