“Love is Love” and Knows No Bounds

Australian director Kyra Bartley and Heckler head of production Aborah Buick mark Valentines Day 2017 by gathering 100+ artists, illustrators, and animators to push back against the “narrow depiction of hetero-normative love” found in modern media.

Kyra Bartley: “With heartbreak, confusion and shouty news articles filling our feeds, we’ll take all the love we can get. So this Valentine’s Day, when saccharine representations of storybook romance threaten to overtake common sense, we’ll be splashing our corner of the internet with a celebration of love in all its forms.”
