The Desktop Wallpaper Project presents Diego Soprano
Posted by Bobby Solomon • March 17, 2010 • The Desktop Wallpaper Project
It’s St. Patrick’s Day and I don’t have a themed wallpaper (not necessarily a bad thing) but I thought that this was still a fitting image. Today’s wallpaper comes from Diego Soprano, an Italian artist living in Milan and creating all kinds of weird/awesome art. You might remember this post about Studio Fantastico, the name he designs under, from last September and the James Dean image in specific. I’ve been a big fan of what he’s doing so I was stoked when he wrote me asking if he could contribute to the project.
I’m not 100% sure what’s going on in this image, but I totally love it. It’s warm and inviting and weird, all the best things in life. It’s kind of like if aliens invaded on the nicest day in summer. Be sure to check out the iPhone one as well, it’s a gem.

Reminds me of M83’s “We Own the Sky” video. Nice.

This is cool. It definitely has a 2001: A Space Odyssey with the black monolith vibe to it.

I adore this wallpaper, but the mis-reflection of one of the black alien guys on the water (little reflection one should be further down, instead of above the bigger one) is driving me nuts. In other news, I really need to find a way to relax.
