Pulsing HeART: A Sci-Art Guide to your Most Dramatic Organ.

Eliana Araque

Can you feel your heartbeat right now? How does breathing, movement, or human connection change the rhythm of your heart?

When did you last feel your own heartbeat? Not metaphorically. Right now — can you feel it?


Pulse is a bold, body-first sci-art experience that brings together cardiovascular science, somatic and artistic practices, sound, and collective ritual to explore the organ that signals life before we are even born — and never stops working until we do.


Join artist Eliana Araque and cardiovascular researcher Dr. Eleonora Adami for 120 minutes of discovery, sensation, and play. Together, we'll open up the science of the heart: how it responds to stress, love, and disease; and make it something you can actually feel in your chest.

 

Expect

  • Embodied practices that tune you into your own heartbeat
  • Mind-expanding cardiovascular science, without the jargon
  • Artistic references in art history and interventions in sound and sculpture
  • A collective experience you didn't know you needed


This is a living encounter with your most dramatic organ: part laboratory, part ritual, part dance floor.


No science background needed. No movement experience required. Just show up with a body and a beating heart.


Know more. Sense more. Feel more.
