This heart is significantly larger than the three I made for The Waiting Room installation. If it were an actual human heart, it would be extremely hypertensive (an art critic/former autopsy pathologist who’s advising me told me that).

About Ben Cuevas
Ben Cuevas is a Los Angeles based interdisciplinary artist whose work spans a wide range of mediums including installation, sculpture, fiber, photography, video, performance, and sound. Often incorporating several of these elements into any given piece, he makes use of digital media as a means of documentation. In light of its pluralistic qualities, he sees his work as a reflection on the condition of embodiment, exploring what it means to have a body, to inhabit a body, to be a body incarnated in, and interacting with this world.
