Pulse translates the rhythm of the human heartbeat into an abstract visual composition—a meditation on movement, vitality, and the blurred boundary between body and art.

The work was inspired by an unforgettable performance by Mikhail Baryshnikov, who once danced to his own heartbeat, wired to an EKG machine on stage. Each gesture he made was guided by his pulse—his lifeforce made audible and visible. That moment, where art emerged directly from biology, became the conceptual anchor for this piece.

Here, the heart’s electric signature stretches across the wall like a choreography of sound and motion. The heartbeat, often used as a symbol of life, shifts from a representative to a conductive role—it no longer depicts life; it conducts it.

In this inversion, Pulse challenges the relationship between the signifier and the signified, asking: where does the artist end and the art begin when life itself becomes the medium?
