After the intense shouting in the workshop, a mesmerising silence emerges, accompanied by a heightened sense of community. These moments of silence not only act as breathing spaces, but also create a physical connection between the participants. The question of how this silence can be used creatively to enrich the workshop led to thoughts about the integration of Heart-to-Heart. | After the intense shouting in the workshop, a mesmerising silence emerges, accompanied by a heightened sense of community.

"Heart-to-Heart" is an artistic work by Chanitnanth Phadungnanonth that explores the physical connection between people through the senses, especially the heartbeat. The installation provides a sensory experience in which participants' heartbeats are transformed into tangible vibrations. This transformation aims to make invisible connections tangible and utilise the heartbeat as a means of communication. The work emphasises that communication is not limited to spoken words and opens up new ways of interpersonal interaction beyond verbal forms of expression. | "Heart-to-Heart" is an artistic work by Chanitnanth Phadungnanonth that explores the physical connection between people through the senses, especially the heartbeat.
