The Last Supper, Made from Rubik’s Cubes, for Some Reason
what
Okay. Some art students recreating Da Vinci’s The Last Supper for some kind of modern/pop art fusion/commentary is all well and good. Standard operating procedure for art students, really. But I say there’s no fucking way these guys “solved” all 4,050 cubes to get them in the proper colors for the piece, which is the only way this would truly be art. If they just took the stickers off and reapplied — which I’m 100% certain they did — then they’re just cheaters. Big cheating cheaters who cheated and aren’t truly willing to suffer for their art. Who have a great deal of time on their hands, apparently. Thanks to Izandra for the tip.
