Art: Nakrob Moonmanas puts a Covid-19 spin on Édouard Manet&#8217;s The Luncheon On The Grass.  A source of inspiration for artwork doesn&#8217;t have to always be something positive. Some Thai artists have turned the coronavirus and its resulting consequences into their muse. Here are a few favourites: &#8211; Nakrob Moonmanas, who&#8217;s known for his collage work of Western art and Thai elements, adds a Thai style female angel in Vincent van Gogh&#8217;s Bedroom In Arles in a piece he named Isolation Odyssey.He also puts a Covid-19 spin on Édouard Manet&#8217;s The Luncheon On The Grass. The iconic nude female wears a diver helmet and a mask and is paired with what seems to be a shirtless man. What&#8217;s with chada headdresses and floating goldfish and carps, you ask? We guess that&#8217;s why this piece is called Pisces.
