The artwork titled “Things from the Flood” was created by Simon Stalenhag in 2016, and it belongs to the Digital Art movement, categorized under the illustration genre. This piece is part of an artwork series named “Things from the Flood”.
In the artwork, the viewer is presented with a stark, wintry landscape dominated by a snow-covered road that winds through the seemingly desolate scene. The most striking elements are two large, mechanical objects, reminiscent of abandoned or derelict machines, partially buried in snow on either side of the road. The melancholy and desolate atmosphere is accentuated by the muted color palette dominated by shades of gray and white, capturing a scene that is both futuristic and forlorn. The presence of a few scattered birds adds a subtle sense of movement and life, juxtaposed against the inert, cold machinery and the barren, snow-covered expanse.
