3 Iconic Masterpieces Reimagined By Fiverr Artists In The Spirit Of The Times

"This moment in which the world is living serves to show us what we need to change, and regardless of the exact way in which the virus appeared, it is clear that this event is a reflection of man's actions" -- says level 1 Seller Daniel Vincent, who was asked to recreate 'The Creation Of Adam' by Michaelangelo almost 510 years after it was painted on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. 3 Fiverr Sellers captured the spirit of our times through iconic world-renowned paintings.

Homage to 'Mona Lisa' by Leonardo Da Vinci, 1503

When I was asked to be a part of that project I was more than happy. I love to illustrate things that have some connection with the current situation in the world - scenes from the new movie, activities that everyone does in a particular time of the year, politics etc. The moment we are living right now is so weird and unique that I'm sure it will leave its mark in history - corona beer, face mask... It was so much fun to place such an icon like Mona Lisa into this setting. I think it's funny to see her quarantining in the hoodie, with undone hair, just like the rest of us. I hope it will cheer up all those people out there, who are forced to work from home!

Homage to 'The Scream' by Edvard Munch, 1893

The whole situation right now feels a bit unreal for me from time to time, although I am constantly confronted with it. Mostly negative news. That's why it felt very good to draw something about Corona, but with a positive message, which also gives a little bit of hope. I think art is a very important topic right now. You can draw beautiful things, create daydreams and give hope. For me personally, such projects help me to take a more relaxed view of the situation and make the best of it. :)

It was really cool to rethink this painting almost 510 years after it was created, especially given this current context. I loved the idea you gave about the gloves and then I immersed myself in that concept. I was inspired by the recreations of classic works full of criticism that Banksy develops. This moment in which the world is living serves to show us what we need to change. Regardless of the exact way in which the virus appeared, it is clear that this event is a reflection of man's actions. It is necessary to focus on a conscious and sustainable economy. It is necessary to think about alternative energies, reducing the use of plastic, reducing the number of cars on the streets... This moment is showing us how viable and positive the home office is, for example. Something that the Fiverr platform itself has been showing us for many years.

Faced with these thoughts, I imagined a reunion of God and Adam, which also represents the encounter with consciousness, as several studies suggest that God, angels and the mantle form the image of a brain, representing rationality. Something very important in times of denial. 

Then we see God wearing a mask and gloves to try to touch Adam again, while the woman (which theoretically symbolizes Eve) and several angels, all also in masks, try to avoid this contact since Adam is contaminated. Adam is lying down and we see garbage around him, showing the neglect that man has with mother earth. Despite the theme, I intend to make a very colorful and contemporary illustration. I hope you like the ideas. Thanks again for the invitation to do this recreation. It has been a great pleasure to work on this illustration with such an important theme. ​
