Disney Animals Brilliantly Reimagined as Humans
There’s something totally mesmerizing about Alex Pick’s “Humanimals” transformations

German artist Alex Pick has an incredible gift for the art of the mashup. Through his Instagram page, he’s reimagined popular movie posters with Disney characters, Disneyfied Harry Potter, and made pretty much everyone into mermaids. And his latest project has a quality to it that makes it particularly hard to look away. He does such a good job of turning iconic Disney animals into humans (and vice versa) that it often takes a minute to realize that the switch has even happened.
Each of Alex’s “Humanimals” mashups is a joy to contemplate, as the characters seamlessly change species while retaining the essence of who they are. Be sure to check out his Instagram page to see more of these, as well as sketches that provide some insights into his process. Below are some of the best from his collection.
