CITY/LANDscape
FUTURE
visions
The gallery contains future cityscape and landscape work that speak most to me. There are a lot of stories these themes can tell with only a few elements, one of them being architecture. The gallery contains pieces of both famous and less famous artists
DISCLAIMER: I didn't make and don't own featured work
Using existing architecture object in a future environment is always a thing that speaks for me. The work has something familiar that makes it more tangible but the displacement in a future urban plan makes the story different.
CITADEL is more of a dystopian piece for me. Also using a familiar sculpture from the past to represent hope and victory in a overcrowded setting of something like suburbs of the future. Marco Zagara uses a protagonist in his work that gives scale to epicness of his pieces.
All pieces by GŁOWA have special atmospeher to them. The short video depicted here talks to me about life in a future city. With its slow movement it reveals itself as a future piece at the end and leaves the viewer to fill in the gaps of the storyline.
AI and generative art has brought something special. In the piece by Ava Khan we generated shapes can be recognised either as a complex transportation system, urban plan, or an extremely complex building. Something like this comes to mind when thinking about how metaverses might look like in the future.
All pieces y Nate Hill are something else. The digitalised landscapes look like something out of androids dream. I't very easy to get lost in thinking what these worlds are and how they work.
Differently than using existing architecture Tom Leighton uses forms known from nature and uses them to create pieces with otherworldly stories. Messing up with the rules of physics that we are used to gives the piece a specific landscape worth looking at.
