Adam Reeder has successfully modernized these ancient Greek statues by putting androids in their hands. The geeky Greek gods are part of a series by Adam Reeder in his goal to explore how technology has changed the way Western cultures interact with the world.
The revamped Greek sculptures were part of Adam Reeder's thesis at The San Francisco Academy of Art University, and served to make viewers think about pop art.
Implications - It is hard to believe that someone as young as Adam Reeder could create suck striking pieces of Greek art. This is one thesis project that is going to go down in the books as a huge success.
