Your heart is racing, your head is spinning. The Race of Hearts presents a physical interpretation of falling in love and the swirl of emotions it brings. Part steampunk automaton, part 1930s amusement ride, this heart-themed merry-go-round was conceived from Playa love and as a love letter to the Playa. BRC citizens ride the spinning sculpture on heart-shaped bicycle seats and arms engraved with emotion words. At its center, an armored heart opens to reveal two cartoon-style hearts dancing together. The armored shell symbolizes self-protection, while the dancing hearts represent acceptance, trust, and safety. On solar panels heart frames, BRC citizens write their Playa love names. The entire structure resembles an ace of hearts from above.
