The Panamanian Heart reflects a country shaped by connection, cultural diversity, vibrant traditions, resilience, and a unique place between oceans and continents. Through red, white, and blue, the anatomical heart becomes more than a representation of a flag—it becomes a symbol of unity, pride, hope, heritage, and belonging.
Part of Hearts Without Borders, this work honors the many layers of Panamanian identity—from its Indigenous and Afro-Panamanian heritage to the cultures, traditions, music, landscapes, and stories that have met and evolved at this crossroads of the world.
It is a heart that connects rather than separates—a reminder that borders can define a place, but our stories, cultures, and humanity have always found ways to travel beyond them.
Many cultures. Two oceans. One Panamanian heart.
