An iron heart is getting heated up by propane gas, causing a huge flame. The heart will eventually become red hot.

BrightHeart by Timothy Lipton

BrightHeart is fire art piece created as a memorial tribute to Dan Fredinburg, friend who died on Mt. Everest in the 25 April 2015 avalanche triggered by the Nepal earthquake.

The heart was showcased on Esplanade @ 4:30 during the event by firing 700+ gallons of LPG via hot air balloon burners, It also burned in the Temple (seen glowing white hot prior to Temple collapse).

Dan Fredinburg was a Google executive who was climbing Everest with three company employees while mapping the area for a future Google Earth-type project.
