About
HEARTBRUT - it means: be bold and brave. It's about sharing concrete love in a tough world
HEARTBRUT navigates the sweet spot between brutalism, art, stereotype-busting and public service. With our fresh, genre-fluid take, print editions, online presence and walks and talks, we connect with diverse and international audiences. Founded in 2019, HEARTBRUT is the brainchild of Zurich-based author Karin Bürki. We are regularly featured in the media.
Keep it brut & beautiful!
Born and bred in Zurich, Karin spent their formative years in London. After graduating in Fine Art from Saint Martins College of Art & Design, the writer & photographer made their name with the photo blog PLAYLUST – a pun on Wanderlust and the pseudonym Play Hunter. Karin’s signature razor-sharp style and refusal to choose between art, photography and media opened up new and singular playgrounds, ranging from the photography book “Now & Wow – A Style Hunter’s Book of Photographs”, a visiting lectureship at Zurich University of the Arts to various newspaper columns, exhibitions and business partnerships. In 2019, Karin founded Heartbrut.
