When it comes to abstract art, anything goes! However, there is one particular combination of styles that has become surprisingly popular. The elegance of classic Renaissance sculptures and the psychedelic digital explosion of the Vaporwave aesthetic are two contrasting styles you wouldn’t expect to see together, but as you will discover from today’s inspiration showcase, it actually works! Check out these combinations of famous statues from the likes of Michelangelo and Donatello with modern digital art trends such as neon lights, abstract shapes, and vibrant colours.

  1. digital artists of today are responding to the talent, dedication, and time that went into those sculptures. Indirectly, they are also responding to the longevity of those works of art. are these digital works showing respect, or disrespect?

  2. fantastic artwork!! simply wow. my favourite is PROMETHEUS BY DAVINCIDANTE. Thanks to all artists.
