Li Kemme: HEART – That I May Never Fail to Tell You
January-July, 2021
Hearts are organic reaction spaces surrounded by hollow muscle. Permeably rooted monuments within us. They embrace and are embraced. For hearts are the experience of repeatedly rebelling and letting go. HEART is an installation with a 25-fold enlargement of a heart made of 14 kilos of truck tarpaulin, which periodically rises and falls, permanently/not permanently, pumping and absorbing, being-in-the-world, inviting us to look and pause.
Li Kemme is a freelance artist in the field of puppet theatre and also in performance, construction and music.
