Market Street Arts is proud to announce San Francisco’s newest peice of public art in the heart of Mid-Market: Heartfullness by Katy Boynton.

Heartfullness is a steel sculpture of a mended heart, embodying the strength of the human spirit. Every experience, every scar, tells a story of resilience and the enduring power of love. By embracing these experiences, we allow our hearts to heal and grow.

During the day the rusted metallic surface catches the sunlight, a testament to the resilience of a heart that has weathered life's challenges.

At night the heart glows with a warm inner light, symbolizing the unyielding fire within us all. The cracks and imperfections transform into pathways for this radiant light to project outward. Just as the heart becomes a beacon of light, so too do we, when we embrace adversity and allow our own inner light to truly shine.

This deeply meaningful work was brought to Mid-Market and funded by the Mid-Market Foundation through Market Street Arts and Sijbrandij Foundation with support from Building 180.

Visitors to Heartfullness are encouraged to post their photos with the sculpture to Instagram and tag @MarketStreetArts.
