Tachycardia: The Knitted Pulse

A life-size cardboard figure stands with its chest cavity peeled open to reveal a riot of knitted organs and yarn-wrapped vessels. Deep red and cobalt blue threads coil through hand-sculpted cardboard ribs, converging on a vibrant, bulbous heart. Beneath, a tangled green “intestine” nest cradles the body’s base, while a cascade of burgundy yarn spills from the head like a waterfall of anxious thoughts. Wire-like arteries, stitched veins, and ribbed corrugations remind us that beneath our rigid exterior lies a trembling network of fibers and beats—fragile, complex, and wildly alive.
