This is a piece by my good friend and metal smith extraordinaire, Linda Sanchez Mendez, aka Afrolinda. If you want to see some cool shit peruse her website.
I'd love to know more about the materials and process used in the piece, personally, if anyone has that information. for some reason, I want the heart to be weighty and solid rather than hollow in the center. I admire it on a visual level, but conceptually it's a little too obvious and transparent for my taste. there's not much tension, I don't think, although it was an interesting choice to give the darts the shape of the type of heart usually used when speaking about love or romance as they damage the anatomical heart. that's just my opinion, of course, and shouldn't away from it.
