It is well documented that i have an extreme love for Disney. I cannot place my finger on why, maybe i love the idea of a perfect reality, or maybe it takes me back to my childhood.
However my love for Disney has just grown. New York-based animation artist Jeff Hong, 35, has imagined some of the company's most popular characters battling the grim conditions of the real world.
These images are so powerful. They remind me a bit of Banksys work, using basic images to display a powerful meaning.
These image display Disney characters facing issues we see every day in reality- from poverty to pollution, and even the worlds obsession with image and appearance.
Pollution of our oceans meets the little mermaid
Homelessness meets cinderella
Mulan battles the polluted smoggy air
Winnie the Pooh is surrounded by deforestation
Belle feels pressure to change how she looks
Bambi becomes ornamental
101 Dalmations are treated badly and taken away from their owners
Ratatouille is used for animal testing
Simba is taken out of his natural habitat and placed in a zoo
Dumbo is poorly treated by a cruel circus master
Robin Hood is restrained after rioting
Alice becomes involved with illegal substances
Tiana is affected by racism
Esmerelda is homeless and afraid
What do you think of these images?
