Comparing Young Thug to historical paintings is amazing
Hajar Benjida attends a performing arts school in the Netherlands where she studies photography. When the class was told to draw inspiration from the work at a local museum, and create an original project. Benjida admits she waited till the last minute. Benjida’s procrastination is our reward. “I drew inspiration from this artist who researched thousands of selfies of other people, and based on that, he made the ultimate guide to the perfect selfie. I had so many photos of Young Thug on my phone, so I just looked through them all and found some combinations. I actually had no idea what to do for this assignment until I came up with this the night before class and presented my idea in a PowerPoint in the morning. It’s the perfect combination of two of my favourite things: hip hop and classical art.” The result is an Instagram account of wonderfully mirroring images of Young Thug against the masters of art.
