Like a Frankenstein's Monster formed out of classic cartoon characters, Spanish artist
Cote Escriva debuts his "Twisted Toons" line from
Pobber Toys at this year's Singapore Toy, Game, and Comic Convention (STGCC). This initial piece, "Twisted Bart," is like something that stepped off the small screen of a
Treehouse of Horror episode, a zombified mash-up Bart Simpson's overall form with Spongebob Squarepants's face and Mickey Mouse's lower torso with a singular Donald Duck leg thrown in for fun! A true art toy inspired by pop culture, this takes the elements of preconceived characters and rearranges them into a new form, one that shows the nightmarish reality frequently hidden underneath a cartoonish veneer.
