Svetlana Petrova’s FatCatArt reimagines classical masterpieces with a playful twist: cats. It all began with her ginger cat Zarathustra, whose dramatic and coquettish poses inspired Svetlana to incorporate him into iconic artworks. Zarathustra’s flair for performance made him the perfect muse, and over time, fellow felines David Bowie and Tyger Blake joined the project.
Through meticulous artistry, Svetlana seamlessly blends her cats into famous paintings, from the Mona Lisa to Van Gogh’s Starry Night. These reinterpretations don’t merely amuse; they transform how audiences engage with classical art. By adding relatable, lovable cats, Svetlana makes these revered pieces accessible to all.
FatCatArt’s success owes much to social media, where Svetlana’s creations resonate with a global audience. Her work bridges the gap between high art and everyday joy, proving that creativity can breathe new life into timeless pieces without diminishing their essence.
Svetlana’s project celebrates the bond between humans and their feline companions while showcasing the versatility of art. Zarathustra and his companions ensure each piece radiates humour and warmth, reminding us that even the most historic canvases can embrace whimsy.
