Arting Health: A Science Communication project by Infers Group using street art (graffiti) to engage the public on cardiovascular health and hypertension

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The man in the image is bent over in pain and clutching his heart,

showing the agony of not taking care of our hearts. The blue colour represents the mood of the topic – cold.

The exaggerated heart represents the fact that hypertension leads to heart problems, and the ECG lines show the distress the heart is in, eventually leading the person to flatline, which symbolises death.

The fact that the figure only has one arm is meant to show that complications from hypertension can lead to amputation. The person is depicted in a stylised form which adds to the overall somber tone

of the artwork.
