$HEART (she_art) embodies the invisible yet profound connections that bind us all, prompting us to listen to our hearts and trust the quiet wisdom within. At its core, it celebrates the heart as our most precious asset—the spirit that guides us to live in tune with our true selves, to be fully present, and to embrace life’s mysteries with open arms.
By merging the heart symbol with the U.S. dollar sign, $HEART (she_art) fuses love, authenticity, and the beauty of life’s offerings. While we navigate a world rich with opportunity, it is the heart that holds the ultimate wealth, transforming the spaces we inhabit with empathy, compassion, and unity. This piece invites us to experience love as a bond that connects everything—our actions, our relationships, and the world itself.

It encourages us to go beyond the familiar, embracing new possibilities and blending the timelessness of print with the fluid energy of digital culture. As a living, evolving meme, it sparks conversations, redefines love’s depth, and inspires us to imagine unity beyond our current understanding.
Since February 2024, I’ve been projecting $HEART (she_art) across outdoor surfaces in Harlem, NYC, transforming the city’s landscape into a vibrant canvas. Whether illuminating a building’s facade or dancing across tree branches, the symbol harmonizes with the city’s rhythm. Each projection opens the door to engagement and discovery, infusing public places with fresh vitality.
The energy of these projections flows into the print version, where the artwork continues to pulse with life. The black background symbolizes infinite potential, offering room for creation and transformation. It functions as a still-yet-powerful reminder of the ever-expanding possibilities within us, capturing the dynamic spirit of every place.
