Heart Seat by Stereotank in Fort Greene Park

Stroll by the corner of Fort Greene Park entrance at Myrtle Avenue and Washington Park to see the Heartseat, a public seating element that made of a repurposed water tank. The eye-catching piece was created by Brooklyn based-design studio Stereotank, founded by architects Marcelo Ertorteguy and Sara Valente, both Brooklyn-based artists. Heartseat was originally commissioned for the juried Times Square Valentine Heart Design Competition, where it greeted thousands of visitors first as a heart-shaped participative installation. It then traveled to DUMBO to welcome visitors to the Pearl Street Triangle. Heartseat is on view Now – October 2015.
