Artist Alaina Bastian, in her series Humanized, has been reimagining animals from classic Disney movies as humans, complete with their own unique personalities.
Bastian was inspired to start the project by her friends’ race- and gender-bent Disney edits on Tumblr, she said.
“I’ve also pulled a lot of inspiration – specifically for The Lion King and The Jungle Book – from the musical and live performances,” she said.
