Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on August 28, 1941)

Happy Birthday, Michael Craig-Martin! Who knew when you showed us an everyday glass of water and confidently proclaimed it an "Oak Tree," you'd still be inspiring endless fascination and confusion years later? Truly, conceptual wizardry at its finest!

From thought-provoking murals to delightfully colorful canvases, you've turned ordinary objects into extraordinary statements. As Emeritus Professor, your legacy thrives in countless students whose creativity flourishes because they learned from the best. May this birthday project many more remarkable creations—though really, at this point even blowing out candles becomes performance art.

Cheers to a master who turned simple perception into profound insight!
