<3 is a collection of heart shapes discovered by chance during the summer of 2025 — small, intimate signs that reveal themselves as a shared and universal gesture. What first appears personal and secret gradually becomes a playful language of affection, connection and care.

The project grows from an obsessive search for the symbol of the heart and the meanings attached to it. It becomes both a manifesto and a quiet act of resistance in favour of time, closeness and slower relationships in an increasingly distracted world.

At its core is the idea that we experience and understand each other visually — that we use our eyes not only to observe, but to think, connect and evolve together.

ABOUT

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
