Heartfullness

 

Heartfullness is a steel sculpture of a mended heart, embodying the strength of the human spirit. Every experience, every scar, tells a story of resilience and the enduring power of love. By embracing these experiences, we allow our hearts to heal and grow.

During the day the rusted metallic surface catches the sunlight, a testament to the resilience of a heart that has weathered life's challenges. Inside, a pair of woven rope seats offer an intimate sanctuary for connection. Below, the surrounding deck provides a space for gathering.

At night the heart glows with a warm inner light, symbolizing the unyielding fire within us all. The cracks and imperfections transform into pathways for this radiant light to project outward. Just as the heart becomes a beacon of light, so too do we, when we embrace adversity and allow our own inner light to truly shine.

Heartfullness debuted at Burning Man 2012. It returned the following year with some fire-y upgrades. Heartfullness has been a featured art piece at Life is Beautiful festival in Las Vegas, BottleRock festival and Lighted Art Festival in Napa, GhostShip Halloween and Sunset Island Electronic Picnic in San Francisco. It was installed in downtown Fremont from Sept 2015- Jan 2017. Heartfullness is available for festivals, weddings, parties, and more.
