The Lawnmower Man

Vector

It's hard to think that The Lawnmower Man, a movie about dystopian view of VR is now 30 years old. This illustration was made to celebrate it's 30 years in Gallery 1988's 30 Years Later 1992 Art Show where artists from around the world create artwork based on the films released in 1992.

I went with The Lawnmower Man since I could do something highly unusual with it's memorable Virtual Worlds and have fun with it since it kind of fits with the Metaverse illustrations I had made rather well and it was nice to look back at the rise of 90s VR and how it never came to be in the end.

This illustration is available as a limited edition of prints at Gallery 1988's online store too:
