BEAUTY: Painting--William Fisk

These extraordinary hyper-realistic oil on canvas works by artist William Fisk glorify retro and extinct technology and objects. They serve not only as an homage to an object but to a time period, society, and cultural beliefs. The narrative that naturally follows from them is the eventual extinction of our current technology. It is hard to imagine what will replace the gadgets with which we currently share our lives.
