Souvenirs of Love is a zine featuring 25 contributors who explore different notions of love by revealing the unseen object biographies of their personal “souvenirs.” Through these intimate stories, each contributor reflects on how their chosen object embodies moments of connection, memory, and transformation.

Each souvenir becomes a vessel of meaning, holding memories of friendship, romance, cherished moments, heartbreak, and loss. Shaped by the contributors’ diverse experiences, these objects reveal personal insights that open up broader reflections on social dynamics, politics, identity, and belonging. Together, they form tangible links to the invisible threads that tie us to love in all its forms.
