Description
This matte painting started as a photo of buildings on Lake St in Northbridge (a suburb in Perth, Australia). My first point of business was removing all trees.This is actually pretty teched up with some semblance of machinery and a rustic wind powered generator. A subtle inclusion I thought.
This is long after the change of ~life as we know it~. Long enough to salvage, rebuild and reappropriate technology. I see it as an optimistic concept though. The guyβs half-suit is pretty high tech, implying a distant futureβ¦ Additionally, mankind is not extinct!

Haha, I don't s'pose you're from Perth then, too? Not many east-coasters I've met have visited our humble West.

I spent a few hours in Perth on the way to Karratha, where I lived for 2 years.
