Bizarre Illustrations by Redmer Hoekstra Merge People and Animals with Everyday Objects
Netherlands-based artist Redmer Hoekstra draws fascinating composite illustrations that merge animals and everyday objects or machines, from a lizard with computer keyboard scales to an owl with books for wings. At times he even brings three or more forms together, as with a whale emerging from a submarine, the entirety of which has the appearance of a banana. Whether you regard the pieces as humorous or slightly disturbing, it’s hard to deny the ingenious way each creature is formed.
Hoekstra has more work over on Behance and you can pick up postcards, prints and other things in his shop.
