Follow This An Instagram Account That's Accidentally Wes Anderson

No one does the absurd as well as Wes Anderson. No one captures the absurd as well as Wes Anderson. And certainly, no one makes you wish for the absurd as much as Wes Anderson. The American filmmaker has, in 15 or so movies, branded a style of cinema entirely his own, the eponymous verb and noun &lsquoWes Anderson&rsquo. Definition visuals with noticeable spatial symmetry, exaggerated use of saturated colours and striking architecture. 

On a photography project on Reddit, fans of the director&rsquos distinctive style came together to post real life visuals that looked like deleted scenes from Wes Anderson&rsquos movies. A slightly amateur initiative, this was taken to the (pastel blue) skies when fan Wally Koval decided to turn it into a more legitimate instagram project.

People from across the world now send in their most uncanny Wes Anderson shots from real life--of a post office that could be in a set, of colour palettes Anderson would swoon over, for example. 

The pictures are from everywhere, seats in a stadium, inside a train, of a pool, bar stools of an unusual colour. 

The next time your eye catches a contained artistically wedged between, seats and symmetry, put it on Instagram with the hashtag #accidentallywesanderson.

After all, if you didn&rsquot &lsquogram it, did it even happen
