OPEN HEART

OPEN HEART is a powerful visual meditation on the resilience of the human heart.

Using a real pig’s heart to represent its human counterpart, the video captures the artist’s hands as they open, tear apart, and rearrange the heart, leaving it both shattered and exposed.

This visceral act symbolizes the impact of life’s challenges and interpersonal experiences, which scar and wound us but also shape our capacity for love. Despite the pain, the heart remains open, reflecting humanity’s enduring pursuit of connection, the courage to give love, and the vulnerability to receive it.

OPEN HEART was part of EXPERIMENTAL LOOP 2025 INTERNATIONAL VIDEOART FESTIVAL in New York, and part of the exhibition FIGURES 2025 at CICA MUSEUM in South Korea.
