MIST0424/BLIPPYPIXEL-THE_FACTORY

In a three by three grid, every cell is occupied by a differently-coloured (but otherwise-identical) stylized coronavirus, presented against variable high-contrast background colours.

Mistigram: [profile] blippypixel brings his #teletext editor back to the #AndyWarhol well for one final take on serially repetitive permutations on iconic topics -- here none other than the Covid-19 coronavirus, whose 15 minutes of fame have certainly overstayed their welcome. As the compromised host cells of an infected and contagious person turn into virus factories, a metaphor resonates with Warhol's name for his screenprinting print shop studio -- also called "The Factory"... as is this screen, which was included in the recent fine art-themed MIST0424 artpack collection.
