HERZ FASSEN - TAKE HEART

A bowl is filled with water. By taking hold of it by the handles, it becomes literally moved by the rhythm of your heart. The water starts pulsating with your heartbeat. The heartbeat is stored and the water will 'beat' with this rhythm until the pulsation slowly abates. At the end the water is calm and discharged again, unless the bowl is touched by a new person to whom whose heartbeat it would set itself to. It then beats with another's heart.

Truly amazing project from Monika Hoinkis, graduated from Udk Berlin - Digital Media Class 2005. For the moment she lives and works in Berlin and Sydney.
