AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

ONLY TWO COPIES EXIST

Technique: Hybrid digital printing on premium 170 g/m² paper
Dimensions: [XL] 50 x 70 cm
Year: 2026
Edition: Limited edition – Only 2 copies exist
Condition: New [never exhibited]
Artist: Collettivo SSICKLAB
Signature: Digital signature of the SSICKLAB collective applied at the bottom left

Description:
The print portrays a Blood Angels Space Marine in red combat armor as he plunges his chainsword into a tyranid creature amidst flames and ruins. The rendering of warm tones and the dynamic composition is carefully pressed onto premium paper, highlighting the ferocity of the battle.

"In the chaos of war, pure fury erupts as the sole bulwark against alien darkness."

Creative process:
The work is the result of a creative synergy within the SSICKLAB collective. The process stems from a hybrid and collaborative approach: an initial sketch is developed using sophisticated Artificial Intelligence tools, then reworked, interpreted, and completed by multiple hands of the collective through careful painting and digital finishing on an iPad.

Limited Edition:
This piece is produced in an extremely reduced edition of only 2 copies worldwide, making each piece a rare collectible.

Packaging and Shipping:
The work is shipped rolled inside protective rigid tubes to ensure maximum safety during transport.

Shipping note: As the collective is an international project with members based in Italy and Germany, the shipment of the work will come directly from the studio of the collective member who oversaw the final production (from Italy or Germany).

The Collective – SSICKLAB:
SSICKLAB is an independent artistic collective founded in 2023 by the young Italian artist SSICK (born in 2003). Born as a meeting point between street art, urban culture, and new technologies, the collective brings together artists and creatives active between Italy and Germany.

The work of SSICKLAB stands out for the ongoing search for a balance between digital innovation and manual expressiveness, ranging from digital painting on iPad to the creation of stencils and street art interventions. Technology is lived by the collective not as an end in itself, but as an expanded tool at the service of shared creativity and visual experimentation.

Seller's Story

SSICK LAB is an Italian creative collective formed by young artists aged 23 to 24, united by a passion for contemporary digital art and pop culture. We use cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence technologies to generate highly detailed drafts and concepts, which are then interpreted and fully hand-colored through professional software. This hybrid approach lets us combine the creative power of AI with the warmth and uniqueness of the manual artistic touch. Our production is deeply inspired by pop culture, manga, cinema, and especially video games, reinterpreted through styles that are very diverse from one another. Our main artists: SSICK A versatile and multifaceted artist, capable of moving naturally between different styles. He is the creator of SSICKY Toy Art, a line of playful and iconic character designs that often populate his works, giving him an instantly recognizable signature. NOVA Specializes in a style strongly influenced by Japanese anime and manga culture. Her works convey dynamism, expressiveness, and that characteristic contemporary Japanese aesthetic. RAIDEN Inspired by the legendary video game Mortal Kombat, he masterfully fuses the Neo Ukiyo-e Japanese style with elements of Western pop culture, creating powerful, cinematic works with strong visual impact. Each SSICK LAB artwork is the result of a unique creative process: stylistic research, experimentation, and meticulous care for color and details. Our illustrations are designed for those who love digital contemporary art, limited edition collectors, street art enthusiasts, manga, video games, and toy design. SSICK LAB — Where the tradition of artistic craftsmanship meets technological innovation.
