DARK TIMES

The artistic universe of the “Dark Times” is a combination of a post-apocalyptic world and a parallel reality created from objects and signs of certain stereotypes of the past. The world after sinking as a result of global warming is divided into small archipelagos of islands scattered around the planet, an endless storm is raging in the world's oceans, making communication difficult not only between the archipelagos but also between the nearest islands. Due to the loss of connection between traditional communities, states and multinational companies are disrupted. National armies are scattered among the archipelagos and have become independent armed associations, sometimes turning into bandit formations, sometimes remaining some semblance of army formations, trying to maintain the army hierarchy structure. There are alien forces operating on Earth, kidnapping people, mostly soldiers, turning them into some kind of mutant zombies. Who are rumored to be not only dangerous, but also a valuable resource, a source of energy for the survivors. This artwork is part of the artistic universe "Dark Times" created by artist Igor Tsvetkov. The “Dark Times” universe is a post-apocalyptic world experiencing a climate catastrophe and an alien invasion. Each of the works in the "Dark Times" collection minted on SuperRare is some kind of a page of the "bible" of the universe and explains the basic laws, principles of its existence and also introduces the main characters. This work is the main page or cover of the “bible”.
