You may be familiar with the surrealist painting “The Son of Man” by Magritte – a man in an overcoat and a bowler hat – his face covered by a hovering green apple – standing in front of a short wall. That’s the painting, not Magritte himself. Well actually, it was a self portrait so I suppose it was Magritte himself. Anyway…
Now artist Kent Zonestar gives us his interpretation using the Mario Bros Mushroom Kingdom as his backdrop and Princess Peach as his muse.
With the combination of video games and fine art, Mario Bros meets Magritte in this fruity mash-up.
