Listen to the Heartbeat of Nature: ‘Pulsus Vitae’ Arrives at Khao Yai Art Forest

Khao Yai has long served as a sanctuary for those seeking fresh air, but its newest installation offers something deeper: a pulse. Khao Yai Art Forest recently unveiled ‘Pulsus Vitae’, an immersive exhibition by the world-renowned French artist duo Scenocosme. This interactive journey invites visitors to step beyond traditional observation and physically connect with the living world.

Where Technology Meets the Soul

Created by Grégory Lasserre and Anaïs met den Ancxt, ‘Pulsus Vitae’ blurs the boundaries between organic life and digital innovation. The exhibition centers on a profound metaphor: the tree as a mirror of the human body.

By gently touching the bark or leaning an ear against the trunk, guests trigger sensitive, concealed sensors. These "living" artworks respond with vibratory sounds that mimic a heartbeat. This physical dialogue encourages a return to inner calm, reminding us of the fragile, shared bond between all living beings. Scenocosme is famous for this "living art," where complex technology remains invisible, allowing the natural element to take center stage.

The Canvas: Khao Yai Art Forest

This exhibition marks a significant addition for Khao Yai Art Forest. Located in the lush foothills of Nakhon Ratchasima, this venue transcends the "white-cube" gallery model. It is a sprawling creative ecosystem where contemporary art and wilderness coexist.

Khao Yai Art Forest provides a permanent home for site-specific works that require the scale of the great outdoors. By hosting international masterpieces like ‘Pulsus Vitae,’ the Forest is cementing its reputation as Thailand’s premier destination for "Art-Tourism." Here, the rustle of leaves and the chirp of insects are just as vital to the experience as the art itself.
