OUTDOORS
For over a decade, Mind the Heart's street-works aim to get both the passers-by and the artists to be present and connected - to ‘be here now’. By reflecting not just the artists' point of view but the experience in a specific place and point in time, the works explores the ways in which people, objects, cities, and nature interact with one another. All works are made with tangible materials (yarn, felt, duct-tape, found-objects). They are all conceived on location, prepared nearby and installed in broad daylight.

BODIES OF WORK
The 'Serendipity Experiment' has blurred the boundaries between living and working. All daily actions - walking, sleeping, eating, taking a shower, doing laundry - are entwined in the making of art. There is no separation, no buffer, no pause, no protection. Geography, social life, health, finances, all the way to bowel movements - life and art affect each other constantly, to the point of becoming one and the same. As a result, the artistic process has become fluid and reactionary, almost like breathing - in and out, input-output. As the barriers are removed, making the private public and vice versa, the artists submit themselves to be a blank canvas, ready to be marked by the ever-changing reality, becoming just another element in the greater composition of the work.
