“Here’s My Heart, ____.” explores themes of love, gratitude, and connection. In the original run, each card was unique, featuring a hand-drawn heart that was digitally refined and placed—crafted to reflect the nuances of Benj4min’s relationship with each recipient.
The artwork unfolds both physically and metaphorically. When opened, the heart is revealed in its entirety, symbolizing an offering of care and appreciation. The recipient’s initials are subtly monogrammed in the lower corner, marking each card as singular. Encased in a white envelope and wrapped with a light pink satin ribbon, the presentation evokes both the delicacy and significance of giving one’s heart to another.
The work exists not only as an object, but as a performance: each card was delivered by hand, from Benj4min to the recipient, reinforcing the act of intentional giving.
For the collector’s edition, each set features a hand-drawn heart, digitally refined and placed—crafted to reflect the nuances of the patron’s relationship with their own circle of loved ones.
