Emotional resonance, an interactive bio-metric installation

Installation

The concept of Emotional Resonance is one of the most brilliant research done about empathy on a biological scale. When we feel connected to someone, movements, rhythm, voice volume, breath intake and heartbeat synchronise. The research on to this art piece was to investigate if art can be a medium for empathy. Are people in the room connected emotionally by a invisible bond made of emotions? can this rhythm resonate through interacting with art? Like a synchronized heartbeat, water droplets cascade from the ceiling, orchestrating a delicate ballet, matching the rhythm of your own heartbeat into the corresponding bowl. The scope of having two is to“Harmonize Heartbeats with a stranger beside you”. It invites you to engage with your own vitality in a symphony of light, water, and life itself. Through the expression of art, individuals endeavor to capture and channel their innermost feelings, often seeking to establish a feedback loop with the public. This interactive relationship between artist and audience can cultivate a profound exchange of emotions, fostering a rich tapestry of human experience and connectivity. As art serves as a conduit for the expression and interpretation of emotions, it stands as a testament to the potential for a reciprocal exchange of sentiments within the public itself and leave art to be the medium in which emotions are shared and not only received.
