Breath looks at the many experiences that we as humans face on a daily basis. In conjunction with a humidity structure that mirrors the lungs, Breath contains a push button sound box that plays four different recordings of the artist’s breaths-each paired with either a hormone or neurotransmitter such as Serotonin and twenty seconds of the artist laughing.
