WE WILL MEND YOUR HEART- @Myneandyours
WE WILL MEND YOUR HEART.
Call May. (555) LOVE. 24 hour service. MYNEANDYOURS is here for you.
As a huge fan of pop art and Roy Lichtenstein — this print grabbed me instantly. It's cartoonish like anime, but has the depth of manga. The palette is pastel, warm, as if the poster itself wanted to wrap you in a hug. And yet there's something bittersweet in it. Something that won't leave you alone.
We will mend your heart.
Mend your heart — we'll fix your emotional state and you'll feel whole again. Oh, what a wonderful feeling that would be.
Open 24/7. That's longer than 7-Eleven. Longer than any convenience store. Imagine — a heart repair service available at any hour of the day or night. No waiting for a therapy appointment. No "we'll call you back on Monday." You just call, and someone fixes it.
And we're not just talking about heartbreak. I hope not only that. Imagine if you could mend a heart after losing someone you love. After the feeling of failure. After losing to fate, after an injustice that fell on you out of nowhere. I'd call. Even if it were an international call and the per-minute rate was astronomical.
(555) LOVE
But here's the catch.
The number is fake. 555 is the prefix from movies — a number that never connects to anyone. And LOVE on a phone keypad is 5683. Not LOVE. Five-six-eight-three. Pure noise. Deliberately wrong data. False hope wrapped in a beautiful poster.
And that's the whole truth of this piece.
Nobody's going to mend your heart. There's no such service. There's no number you can call at three in the morning when your world is falling apart. The ad promises something it can never deliver — exactly the way a thousand other ads, products, and people promise us things every single day.
Inhale. Exhale.
So what are we left with?
What the girl on the poster does. She takes a deep breath. Lets the air out. And keeps going. Because life doesn't have a service hotline. There's no helpline for fixing broken things inside you.
But there is that breath. And there is the next step.
MYNEANDYOURS is here for you.
@Myneandyours is an anonymous street artist who started with stickers back in 2008. Putting them up around the city gave him the feeling that he existed — because his day job didn't. At 28, he quit his nine-to-five and stepped into the unknown. His work doesn't sell anything. It's an anomaly in a world saturated with direct messaging. And that absence of motive — that's where all the power lies.
