Art Of Living: From The Heart

How can art and science work together to help patients with heart disease better understand their illness and treatment?

Artist Sofie Layton and bioengineer Giovanni Biglino work with patients at Great Ormond Street Hospital as they look inside themselves and reflect on the uniqueness of their bodies to discover the stories they carry inside their hearts. We meet Tahera, mother of patient Arif, who took part in this journey of discovery and exploration of both his medical heart and poetic heart.
