Diego Cusano is an Italy-based artist who calls himself a “Fantasy Researcher” and explores the line between imagination and reality. Using his limitless creativity, this artist is able to turn ordinary objects into unexpected illustrations that let us see those simple everyday items from a new perspective.
"I started watching things from a different point of view, and from this new approach, I started creating the illustrations that, since then, I’m publishing each day on the social networks," Diego writes on his Facebook page. "Objects change their native function through the graphic to a new, different, unpredictable function. I always try to "re-invent" myself. I would like to give smiles when people look at my works.”
The beauty of Diego’s works is that unexpected twist that he gives to those things we usually see as casual – he turns a banana into a giraffe, a cup of coffee suddenly becomes a planet, a head of garlic becomes a duck. Still don’t see how it’d work? Scroll down and witness it for yourself!

This brings me youth sentiment. When I was about 6 years old. I got 2 turtles. But later when they grew bigger and our hands were too small to pick them up from above, my sister and I picked them up like you hold a hamburger. And now this (drawn) turtle turned into a turtle-hamburger hybrid! I like this one very much! But only as a picture! Not as food..
My husband and I are split down the middle if we like this one.
I don't know why but I love this one! Something about the artwork just, pops!
Ah, “le petit prince”. I read that book in french when I was about 16 years old.
Love the homage to that classic. I could read it again and again and again.
My fave so far... elegant isn't what would normally come to mind when u think of toothbrushes?
I wanted to write a witty comment but there is no topping your observation, it's brilliant!

Would've been cute if one of the snails had bitten out of their shell ;P

That’s what happens when Homer tries Marge’s stylist and asks for. “You know, the usual.”

I know it’s Charlie Chaplin but he kinda looks like a fashionable Hitler....

I would buy a mascara with this on the packaging. Like a natural based mascara. You should pitch it to a high-end, cruelty-free mascara line. I think you're onto something here.
By the way, b$@ches, this is proof that I thought of this idea 1st!!! Don't steal my s**t!!! I don't wanna see no vegan makeup with this type of packaging pop up in the near future! Lls
Something about this makes me think droopy. Not sure if the way the lines are drawn or placement of the ladles. But I like the concept. I know we come in all shapes & degrees of droop & perk. Idk... just an observation. No shade
Really beautiful actually. It catches you off guard but you know someone who's eyes look like this prolly.
As small children we could do this because our gaps in the teeth and when we did do this Mom would freak out. So we did it a lot until Dad told us to stop.
Haha oh my god we did the same thing you've literally JUST reminded me of this memory!

You just cracked me up with your comment. LAMO I was just thinking yumm.
Load More Replies...This would.make a great print for sheets! I love this artist’s imagination and talent with so many drawing styles. Well done.
Yup. When the pots boil all the way over, may as well have put everything in a thimble. That's the edible amount usually left!!! Kids... never dull.
