"This painting is looking into the future and the past. Showing how I once was, how I am now, and, most importantly, how I want to be in the future. All while being slowly surrounded by a dark shadow that will one day stop the constant change that is life. The future will come and death with it. Making all the things that you were, are, and will be into one." - Max Purtill

"This painting is from the anime Attack on Titan and although the anime takes place in the past that's not why it’s futuristic.   It’s what the anime uses, for example, their equipment uses compressed air that helps them move around and basically fly. Along with their “zip lines” that help them move around, you can see that this is something that’s in the future."
