Interlude for the Heart: Art, Music & Poetry
Overview
A brief interlude in your busy day to nourish your own heart and soul.
This short, rich program of music and words will take place in front of the wall of glowing glass hearts in the exhibition, Harriet Schwarzrock: Fluid Presence.
You'll experience an extraordinary performance by acclaimed chamber singers, Luminescence, entitled Of The Body VII: How to Hold a Heart by Dan Walker (2023). With glorious, unaccompanied human voices, a spoken word element written by heart surgeon Dr Kathy Magliato describes how it feels to hold a human heart.
Participants will also encounter Persian love poetry, read by Dr Yazdan Mansourian as well as a reading of 'Not Everybody Has a Dancing Heart', a collection of social media posts written by Kate Morell, across a year when her heart — metaphorically and literally — demanded attention.
Poems, musings and music will be served with a slice of Persian love cake and a cup of cardamom tea.
Bookings essential.
