Beats Fire // Vuurtje


As robotics become more advanced, the line between human and machine begins to blur. This is the space I love to create in. Collaborating with engineers, we combined elements: I welded the metal heart and created the hand, while they added electrics and a sensor to make the heart sculpture fire in sync with a human heartbeat.

The work evolves

Since the initial installation on Roboat and then Radion (where the heart was engineered to fire up in sync with your own), I have collaborated with another group of entrepreneurs, musicians, and performers to create a happening: 'Vuurtje', at ToekomstMuziek - an equinox event based on the old Chinese Proverb:

薪尽火传: A new flame ignites as the old one burns out.
