ssick lab - The Greenhouse Guardian

Giclée print on premium museum-quality paper 50 x 70 cm in a limited edition of only 5 copies.

The artwork presents a nostalgic atmosphere and vaguely "rural cyberpunk". At the center of the scene we find a blue robot with a retro design, characterized by three front lenses and a squared body that seems to tell stories of a technological past now analog.

The robot is immersed in a lush interior garden or greenhouse, surrounded by verdant plants and terracotta pots. Beside it, a small orange creature and several vintage posters on the walls suggest a world inhabited by sentient machines that have found a new dimension of peace among nature. The illustrative style, reminiscent of the great masters of Japanese animation, blends the rigidity of metal with the softness of organic leaves.

Production method: Development of a preliminary visual architecture using AI generative models to define composition, tonal values and color schemes, followed by a meticulous manual digital painting intervention aimed at perfecting the anatomy, integrating customized textures and imprinting the artist's distinctive stylistic fingerprint.

The Collective: SSICK LAB We are a collective of young Italian artists, about 24 years old, born and raised with a visceral passion for art and pop culture. SSICK LAB began as a creative laboratory where we experiment with the fusion between iconic aesthetics of contemporary media and historical visual languages. Our mission is to explore new expressive frontiers, placing technological innovation at the service of pure creativity.
