Make your heart visible → that's what we did!
On the International Day of Happiness, Johanna Keimeyer roams the streets of Berlin spreading love and light in the form of heart-shaped balloons. The Berlin-based multimedia artist does so as an extension of her larger project, BREATH ing HEART, an installation exhibited at the VIP Program for Art Basel 2017, encouraging audiences to turn inwards and tune into to their heart.
Keimeyer's installation features an immersive walk-in heart, in which up to 20 people can lay and sit at the same time, which fills itself with air and pulses in a breathing rhythm accompanied by light, scent, and sound. All happening in the 1600 square meters of the historical water filter building, where the visitor perceives to be inside their body. Artificial, oversized lung alveoli, vein-like light installations and spatially wandering sounds of music, heartbeat and breath created a space for visitors to focus on their inner being.
Keimeyer invites her audience to enter the breathing heart, lie down and listen to their own breath and heartbeat. She intones, “I would like to give people the experience to confront and feel themselves.“
The heart measured 400 cubic meters and required 70 helpers to set up the 250 kg of materials.

“If it were possible to enter into an analogue heart, it could serve as a trigger for many people to finally go within themselves. Johanna Keimeyer already made this turnaround…“ – Porky, musician (Deichkind)
“A body floating inside a red inflatable body.“ – Humberto Campana, Designer
To achieve BREATH ing HEART, Keimeyer started her crowdfunding-campaign and successfully won Novartis as a major sponsor for the realization of the interactive heart object, as well as private supporters Robert Hankin and Ruth Stadler. Speakers of the British manufacturer Bowers & Wilkins ensured the implementation of the sound field and strongly supported the project as well. Mezeaudio also joined, providing headsets. Open Innovation Space supported the project with 3D printed parts and K.Schweizerwith electrical engineering. KIRRON light components shine with establishing their innovative DycoLED light system. Emil Frey AG Autocenter Münchenstein provide the cars for the shuttle service. The renowned Berlin film production company Picsters document the project. Philippe Hoerle-Guggenheim, founder of HG Contemporary Gallery NYC, supported and presented the project.
