Social Media-Mimicking Art

Yue Wu's Instagram Illustrations Recreate His Account Activity

These Instagram illustrations take liking a photo to a whole new level. Artist Yue Wu's fun new project has him drawing the things that he likes on Instragram daily and mashing them together to create a mish-mash of interesting things.

Instagram can get monotonous sometimes with the general cookie cutter-like formula of pictures taken but even those pictures seem to take on new life when they're drawn. Images like a meme-like Kim Jong Un for one look particularly hilarious when Yue Wu gets his hands on them.

Yue Wu's hand drawn style is well-documented and as the Hypebeast du-jour, we're sure we'll see many more of his random sketches and takes on popular culture.
