Kinders Heart Light Blub
Kinders Heart Light Blub
For Hispanic Heritage month Kinders learned about Mexican-Canadian artist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer. In 2022 he exhibited interactive The Pulse Room in New York that broadcasts and records every visitor’s heartbeat across 3,000 suspended light bulbs.
The pulse room records the visitors' heartbeat through the pulse senor.
Kinders were guided to feel their own heartbeat and sense the rhymical beat it has. With our practice with drawing types of lines (i.e.: straight, curved, loops, and dashes) they drew our heart lightbulb, and practiced cutting rounded shapes ( lightbulb and oval)
Kinders collaborated with their hearts to form our own pulse room display!
