The Heartbeat prints can be seen as a sort of mapping of the tempos of different heart rates of different beings we share the planet with. Each space within the composition represents a beat or space of beats in relation to the others around it. For instance, a rabbit may be about a 1:5 ratio to a chickadee. While physically drawing the 540 bpm of a chickadee, I have also had plenty of time to think of the act of physical translation, the shortcomings or miracles within our bodies to translate or misunderstand the experiences of these beings.
