Break Your Heart To Mend It
2026This project is a participatory hypnosis experience designed as a direct response to contemporary global apathy and the media-driven programming of societies. The work investigates the anatomy of the "perspective shift", the precise, defining moments in a person's life where their worldview permanently alters, a belief system collapses, or their eyes and heart are opened to a cause.
The artwork takes form as a voluntary, solo experience. Utilising advanced hypnotic storytelling, participants are guided through a vivid, intense dreamscape. The narrative structure intentionally utilises emotional friction and moments of drama in the story arc to dissolve cognitive biases.
Ultimately, the work functions to cultivate deep empathy and a visceral opening of the participant's worldview. It is a conceptual experiment in active, benevolent conditioning, and exploring consciously programming the human psyche for a hypothetical paradise.
