Have a heart
Have a heart er startet af billedkunstner og designer Mette Petri. Med rod i danske design traditioner står hendes produkter for originalitet, kvalitet, bæredygtighed og genbrug. Konceptet er designobjekter i form af håndlavede flettede hjerter. På FindersKeepers udstiller Have a heart to linjer af deres hjerter. ’Heart-beat’ er navnet på en ny kollektion kreeret med vægt på ’playfulness, beauty and a dash of cool style’. Sammen med ’Heart-beat viser de deres bæredygtige unika linje. Have a heart er inspireret af en love story og en dansk opfindelse. I 1860 skaber H. C. Andersen det første flettede hjerte. Betaget af en ung pige giver han hjertet til hende som en kærlighedserklæring. I dag er det flettede hjerte kendt i hele verden. Som billedkunstner bliver formen og den symbolik et hjerte repræsenterer ved med at inspirere. Hjerter er magiske – de vækker vores følelser og minder os om, at vi er forbundne.
