Taste of Streep Is the Instagram Account You Didn’t Know You Needed
The best mashups are simple, unexpected, and greater than the sum of their parts. Like tasteofstreep, the Instagram account that combines photos of Meryl Streep with assorted food items. It’s a simple formula (Meryl Streep photo + color-coordinating food item + wacky background), but it manages to create the same sort of joyfully demented aesthetic asLisa Frank.
The account has only been active for a few months, but there are plenty of zany images to enjoy. I personally think the backgrounds are the lynchpin to the whole series; they make the food and Merylsfloat in a pastel sea that feels like a surreal elementary school portrait. Check out some of my favorite posts below, and the entire account here.
