Half Hearted was constructed off the back of a larger project — born in the aftermath of pain and change. What began as scraps and fragments became a physical manifestation of conflict: red mesh pressed against plastered whites, raw against calm, struggle against surrender.
It is a half-given heart. The kind you offer when you’ve been hurt but still feel. The kind that beats unevenly yet refuses to stop. Layers of texture and broken surface reveal an ever-changing flow of empathy — messy, imperfect, alive.
For me, this piece is about the tension between holding back and giving anyway. It asks: when your heart is only half there, is it protection — or is it survival?
