He has a thing for robots, but there is also heart in the work of Italian street artist Pixelpancho. Quite a lot, as a matter of fact. His murals look like artefacts of a utopian future. Of a world that, despite the significant presence of machines, might be more human than the one we know today. And in that world, it is perfectly normal that machines too are fans of James Ensor’s work. That’s why Pixelpancho, who himself is a fan of Salvador Dalí and Japanese pop artist Takashi Murakami, pinned a badge of the Ostend master on the robot pictured.
