Indonesian artist Agan Harahap, who was responsible for the viral images of superheros photoshopped into iconic historical images, has a new project: “Happy Religion.” Harahap photoshops his own face onto Christ’s from well-known classic paintings like Caravaggio’s “The Supper at Emmaus” and “The Entombment of Christ.”

Is it true that Jesus’ face was bearded and long haired, or black and frizzy hair, or maybe even bald, clean-shaven and slanted eyes. For me, it would be much more elegant if I learn to believe in my religion personally and learn to live in harmony with others rather than question the ‘little things’ that could be fatal for the content of my faith and relationship with audiences.

And when each individual can look at religion as a ‘humanist and liquid’ form, I believe the tensions and friction that cause wars and discrimination because of religion will not happen again in future lives.
