Based in Cyprus, Hayati’nin Evreni creates mashups based on famous paintings. Immersed in our universe, these canvases of classical painting rub against our universe full of technology, internet, characters of pop culture, memes and scenes of everyday life.
The Turkish butcher and chef “Salt Bae” invites himself to the table of the Last Supper (1498), The Scream of Edvard Munch (1893) wanders in the Upside Down of Stranger Things, a painting of Caravaggio receives the visit of the dentist Deadpool while Vincent van Gogh, Johannes Vermeer, and Leonardo da Vinci revisit the famous even called “Distracted boyfriend”.
A real reinterpretation of classical masterpieces and a reappropriation of their symbolism and space.
