"..IS THIS THE WORLD WE ARE GOING TO LIVE IN?" by John Luke Hodgkins 

Bronx, New York. 2023
Over 3/4 of the world’s population has been wiped out due to a global pandemic.

This circular installation was commissioned to represent planet Earth. Also known as ‘The Sculpture of Perseverance’. The locals see this sculpture as a beacon of hope.
It is a memorial for all the friends and family members that we have lost.
Months after the artworks installation, a message was curved: ‘We must fight on and we will continue to shine’.


This environment was built from my imagination. I was thinking about what might happen if a recently developed master plan was to slowly deteriorate and become taken over by local graffiti artists.

This rendering blurs the lines between architecture and art, I really like how the bold composition complements the dramatic lighting.
