Warmth explores the Sun as both a scientific subject and a sensory experience. The installation translates processes from the convection zone, photosphere, and chromosphere into light, sound, and heat. Grounded in scientific data, the work reflects on the delicate relationship between the Sun's immense energy and the conditions that make life on Earth possible.
