Instagram of the Day: Collages with Characters from Classical Paintings
Shusaku Takaoka offers a fresh look on paintings.
Japanese designer Shusaku Takaoka publishes works based on classical paintings on his Instagram. For instance, in his recent collages he places characters from 19th century paintings into the 21st century, turning Van Gogh, Mona Lisa, and a woman from Jan Vermeer’s painting into modern citizens. In his other works, the designer combines paintings with photographs or illustrations, adding a new meaning to them.
