KALOSTASIS
Kalostasis, an interactive artwork into human flow

YEAR: 2019-2023
PRODUCTION: Cellule Studio
PARTNERS: King’s College London
VENUE: V&A Museum, ECC Venice Biennale, KIKK Festival.

Kalostatis is an interactive installation enacting the unseen flow of the heart. The installation is simulating in 360° the beauty and complexity of the constant flow and motion that keeps us alive, its various extremes and our body’s ability to attain a state of balance, an equilibrium key to our health. This concept of equilibrium within the heart flow can be found throughout nature, raising questions about the dynamic rhythms and flows that rules our world.

Kalostasis premiered at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London as part of the London Design Festival 2019, and part of the Venice Biennale ECC architecture exhibition in 2021.
