Heart/Earth

Tom Biddulph & Barbara Ryan
Edition 9

Written in mega-sized letters, a light sentence is placed behind the windows of the "floating" bridge of the University of Amsterdam. It is the artwork HEART/EARTH, created by the young designers Tom Biddulph and Barbara Ryan. Tom and Barbara are originally from London, but have been living and working in Amsterdam for a few years now. With their light text - which is somewhat reminiscent of old neon signs - they want to make you think about your personal relationship with our earth, and call on you to treat it with care. Spoken word artist Roziena Salihu has written a poem especially for this artwork. You can listen to her performance below.
