With the re-release of the Peanuts comic strip in a newly animated film, art distributer Pace Prints recently put together a set of character prints inspired by Charlie Brown's beloved dog Snoopy redone in an abstract patchwork style. The installations feature an eclectic mix of colors, textures and styles combined to recreate the outline of one of the most famous canine characters in pop culture.
The prints showcase Snoopy in an unconventional modern light as the celebrated puppy becomes a recognizable character that is so well known he is even distinguishable simply by his figure. The prints feature three different designed entitled 'THE THINGS THAT COMFORT,' 'STAY STEADY' and 'NO ONE'S HOME' that show Snoopy remade using a mosaic of colors, fabrics and patterns. The prints are currently featured at the Art Basel Miami event and are up for auction.
