A Modern Figure Among the Doctors
In Murphy Among the Doctors, a composition inspired by Bernardino Luini’s Christ Among the Doctors is reimagined around Robocop. Surrounded by the learned figures from the original scene, he becomes a modern icon: part machine, part man, and a symbol of justice.
Part of Crossover: When Pop Culture Meets the Old Masters, this painting brings a familiar science-fiction hero into the visual language of classical art. The series explores how pop culture has become a modern mythology, creating new icons and stories around ideas such as identity, duty and justice.
