About The Artwork
MUSEUM OF FORBIDDEN PLANET, Limited Edition 1/25, manipulated digital image. The word robot was the brainchild of a wonderful Czech playwright, novelist and journalist named Karel Capek. He lived from 1880 to 1938. And he introduced it in 1920 in his hit play "RUR," or "Rossum's Universal Robots." FLATOW: Does it have a Latin origin, or just - he just made it up out of thin air? Prof. MARKEL: Well, it comes from an Old Church Slavonic word, rabota, which means servitude of forced labor. The word also has cognates in German, Russian, Polish and Czech. And it's really a product of Central European system of serfdom, where a tenants' rent was paid for in forced labor or service. And he was writing this play about a company, Rossum's Universal Robots, that was actually using biotechnology. They were mass-producing workers using the latest biology, chemistry and physiology to produce workers who lack nothing but a soul. They couldn't love. They couldn't have feelings. But they could do all the works that humans preferred not to do. And, of course, the company was soon inundated with our orders.

IF you are interested in a certain type of art look under my "COLLECTIONS". I do abstract painting, digital images, assemblage and collages. The Best Way To Look at ALL of My Art is to look middle right for "ART WORKS", click on that and wait. I am also interested in crypto and crypto art, namely Non Fungible Tokens (NFT) I think it is a new frontier. OpenSea.io/STEVE-P My process: I will "play" with an image, change color or placement, until I think things are just right and the image I end up with is "interesting". I also want the art work to be something that if I bought it I could stand in front of it and notice new things or have new thoughts about the piece at each viewing. In some of my pictures I want you, the viewer, to be sucked into them. I want it to be like you are in a building or museum and something is happening at the other end. You want to walk down the hall in order to get a closer look at the picture. That's one of my goals. Also I have many different things, enhanced photos, frames, paint around my studio with which I can combine images, colors or whatever is available at the time into something new. Many of my digital images are now embellished canvas giclees Limited Editions. I also have Limited Edition embellished prints. My artistic statement , "I want to see deeper and hear deeper". I'm trying! Also, if you buy one or more of my works you have truly bought a really great "Peace" of Art. Thanks to saatchiart.com I have sold works, literally, all over the world!
