Emojis seem to be everywhere these days, so now an artist named Nastya Ptichek of Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, has paired emojis with famous paintings. Another part of her series “Emoji Nation”, which Wired reports is going viral on Tumblr, superimposes Windows computer alerts, tweets, Instagram actions, and Facebook status updates onto paintings. The project will appeal to the art buffs on the Internet.
