The Monsters, 2025

The memetic monsters in all their glory. A modern day cave painting where lions are replaced by Labubus. Christian Hastad’s thick, uneven brushwork and visible drag marks slow the image down, turning a slick, endlessly reproduced meme face into something weighted and physical. Send this to the chronically online, as a gentle summons back to time spent in offline reality.
