Old Future Folk #1


May 2019.

I’ve been working on some portraits of fictional old future people.

Growing old fascinates me, especially within our ‘age’ where current 30-year olds might turn 150 or older due to genetic technologies like CRISPR and our western underappreciation of death.

Not trying to sound macabre or as a creepy old Ed Gein skull collecting dude, but I mean there is a certain beauty in aging and the inevitability of dying right?

How would our society behave with a possible eternal future?

Ah well, back to Netflix for now.
