Moments of brilliance from Picasso to Einstein turned into the abstract GIFs/digital art that Rafaël Rozendaal is so famous for.
In a project for AND, Rafaël Rozendaal created a series called Happy Mondays–a new Abstract GIF that debuted each Monday to kick off the work week, inspired by a famous quote.
“Action is the foundational key to all success.”
Pablo Picasso
So Thomas Edison’s “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work,” becomes a series of somewhat random, imperfect shapes on a variety of backgrounds. Pablo Picasso’s “Action is the foundational key to all success,” is a gradient circle, spinning round and round infinitely. And while every image is quite different than the one before it, devoid of any thematic color palette or aesthetic basis, a certain hyperactive positivity creates a theme that burns right into your retinas.
“I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

“Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.”
