The artwork “Things from the Flood” by artist Simon Stålenhag, created in 2016, belongs to the Digital Art movement and is part of the genre of illustration. This piece is a part of the series titled “Things from the Flood”.
The artwork presents a stark winter landscape featuring a snow-covered road that winds through an open field. Two large, futuristic, and somewhat dilapidated robotic structures are prominently positioned on either side of the road’s curve. These machines appear to be abandoned, as indicated by the rust and wear visible on their surfaces. The scene is further accentuated by the presence of a few birds flying in the sky, adding a sense of desolation to the landscape. The muted color palette, dominated by shades of white, grey, and blue, contributes to the cold and isolated atmosphere. The attention to detail in the depiction of the snow and the mechanical elements underscores Stålenhag’s skill in blending the natural world with elements of science fiction.
