Love makes even the most rational and reserved of us act like teenagers – drool over a photo of the beloved one, sigh deeply at night, talk fluffy words, and anxiously wait for Valentine’s Day. Australian art collective “Hubbawelcome” mocks this in their Valentine’s Day greeting cards, placing them full of dark sense of humor and somewhat stalker-ish captions next to cute and funny drawings. Chris Mundy and Greg Lockhart, currently based in East London, say that their Valentine’s Day cards are inspired by the online culture and the loneliness and isolation it causes.
“In our work and especially these love cards, we visualize the obsessive and disposable nature of how individual people interact online,” says Chris. Clearly, this results in a lack of proper communication skills and ways to show appreciation, and this is what the guys transferred to their funny cards. We suggest you step away from the computer if you find these Valentine’s Day quotes completely normal and understandable!
