These intriguing artworks by imaginative painter Sashie Masakatsu portray a floating orb that looks to be in rough shape. This orb looks fit for some futuristic wasteland. In fact it looks like a floating ball made up of shady student housing units, but it's interesting to look at.
If viewers look closely, they can see that while some of this orb is definitely made from old housing, other bits are made up of vending machines and various other less glamorous everyday objects. The ground below the orb seems to be in absolute ruins. Tires are piled high, the air looks smokey and there's not a soul to be found on the streets.
Masakatsu has effectively created a marvelous apocalyptic world in this fantastically surreal painting series.
