Steel Seas & Sky Machines: The Dieselpunk Art of Tony Snipes

Head off on a journey through Tony Snipes’ world of alternate histories and reimagined machines in this powerful new exhibition. Steel Seas & Sky Machines explores an alternate America where Abraham Lincoln survives and leads the nation through a stronger, more visionary Reconstruction, inviting visitors to reconsider history as a place for possibility, creativity and new perspectives. 

Through detailed sketches, intricate 3-D models, and immersive digital works, Snipes imagines a future shaped by bold scientific breakthroughs in electricity, magnetism, and gravity, where innovation transforms society, lifts ships and “Aerocycles” into the sky, and redefines what progress can look like.
