NEW YORK CITY — In an exclusive interview with The Dingo, Vignesh Kanjolia showed off his 3D-printed art collection, which lines every wall in his Manhattan apartment from ceiling to floor.

“I just want to see how they look in my home first,” Kanjolia said. “It’s like trying on clothes before you buy them.”

He proudly gestured to The Last Supper, American Gothic, Guernica, and hundreds of other classic paintings hanging in his living room.

“Of all the pieces I’ve recreated, this one is my favorite,” Kanjolia said, pointing upward toward his perfect counterfeit of the Sistine Ceiling.

The Lourve, Met, Guggenheim, and dozens of other museums of fine art are threatening legal action unless he forfeits all his artworks and ceases further printing.

“This is theft, plain and simple,” said Jerome Roquefort, an attorney representing the art institutions. “You wouldn’t print a car, would you?”

“First of all, what a stupid question!” Kanjolia exclaimed. “I absolutely would print a car — only to test drive — if that were possible. I’m not bending the knee to these fascists. I haven’t stolen anything — they’re replicas!”

Undeterred, he plans to 3D print the Sculpture of David and the Lincoln Memorial next, maintaining that he is “just curious” about how they’d look on his balcony.
