“The Electric State,” created by Simon Stalenhag in 2017, is a notable piece in the Digital Art movement under the illustration genre. This artwork is part of a series titled “The Electric State,” which provides a chilling yet intriguing visual narrative.
The artwork depicts a vast and desolate landscape, likely set in a futuristic or alternative timeline. Dominating the scene is an enormous spherical industrial structure adorned with an advertisement of a woman, along with the logo “SENTRÉ.” This spherical monolith, set against a backdrop of rolling hills partially covered in snow and dense coniferous forests, exudes an eerie and abandoned atmosphere. A winding road diverges smoothly away from the foreground, leading a solitary car towards this monumental structure. The colors in the artwork are predominantly cool tones, enhancing the somber and dystopian mood. This captivating scene evokes a sense of mystery and contemplation about the world it belongs to.
