The kings of the internet are not humans. The real kings of the Internet are the cute animals that make our world full of memes and laughter. These are the most famous animals on the Internet and in their honour, Japanese artist Meetissai has sculpted them so you can have them on your desk at work or on your nightstand to look upon before falling asleep.
You might read this with one raised eyebrow and I’ll try not to judge you. I’ll try to make you see the bright side: memes are part of our lives right now, they make our jobs easier, they soften our toughness and they just make everything bearable when you feel like everything is going in the wrong direction. Memes are ice breakers, help the conversation flow naturally and we’ve really got to thank them for a lot of mankind’s achievements. (well, maybe not a lot; still, there might be a little genius somewhere, in the world, hidden because he’d been bullied, but he’ll read one or two memes and continue on working to find the cure for cancer. See? That’s an achievement!) So, when memes have given us so much, why not give back to them and transform them into real-size sculptures.
Meetissai understood this and he started making tiny figurines from all the famous viral moments from the Internet. At first, the artist was looking for a real-life version of a favourite animal that was part of a whole string of memes. He could not find anything that would resemble it, so he made it on his own, at home. It turned out people really loved it because now he has a whole collection of hilarious animal memes in 3D form so that they would never be forgotten. We’ve got to thank Meetissai for his creativity and imagination and now we’ve got a test for you!

And while you’re at it, you might feel a little pang of melancholy in your heart because our dear, queen of the Internet is missing.
