Heart of Glass

The Heart of Glass is based on MRI scans undertaken at the Visible Heart Laboratory, University of Minnesota, US, by Professor Paul Iaizzo and his team. It was commissioned for the collection of the Royal College of Physicians in London, and exhibited in Ceaseless Motion: William Harvey's experiments in Circulation. The artist also created a dramatically upscaled Heart of Glass which is in the permanent collection of the world leading cardiothoracic hospital, The Royal Papworth in Cambridge
