Some years back, brothers Nicolas Blies and Stéphane Huber-Blies of BLIESBRO began to feel that the world was becoming ever more isolating and individuals were growing increasingly remote. So was born a work which seeks to teach us that before we can forge connections with others, each of us must love and understand our own selves. Audience members each don a headset and beautifully made cape, accessories that light up progressively as a narrative of love and self-acceptance is told amid a swirl of healing, energising light projections.
This Is My Heart is a poetic and sensory experience that is designed and accessible for general audiences. Parental guidance may be preferred for younger people due to the immersive sensory environment (headsets, darkness, and glowing lights) and the theme of childhood trauma.
We would suggest that this work speaks best to those 14+
