A conceptual artist Brian Feldman embraced his father Edward Alan Feldman for 24 hours on Father’s Day.Embrace became transformative on Fathers Day when Brain stopped in Florida to give his dad a 24-hour healing hug. Feldman was the recipient of his son Brians hug which began 12 a.m in the boxing ring at Orlandos Gym. People who paid their $10 entrance fee turned from spectators to participants after noon and were allowed in the ring to hug their own loved ones.The idea inspired another artist, Young Sun Han who embraced a stranger found through a Chicago Craigslist ad. The hug lasted for 21 hours.
