I’m strongly influenced by Australian culture, science fiction, cyberpunk and vaporwave aesthetics, and dystopian\/post-apocalyptic fiction. While my work tends to reflect the darker elements of life I love sprinkling humour and motifs throughout. Iconic figures from Australian history and culture feature heavily in my pieces: Ned Kelly, Vegemite, and even Bubble-O Bills. All of them standing out in late-stage consumerist Hellscapes that are beautiful in their over-developed decay. Basically, I was motivated to create the Australian sci-fi dystopia I always wanted to see but I was sick of waiting for others to create it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e","brand":"The Corner Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54872799150371,"sku":null,"price":165.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/2558\/0835\/files\/NickCowling-HardEarnedThirst_32.5x42.5.jpg?v=1774652022","url":"https:\/\/artdecypher.com\/products\/hard-earned-thirst","provider":"Artdecypher","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
