Retro Futurism Gives Space Nostalgia Vibes

Artist Andreas Lie takes us on a nostalgic journey through moments that never really happened.

Using traditional collage techniques, Lie shows us vintage moments of road trips, scenic viewpoints and drive-ins, set in deep space, or on the precipice of a roadway suspended above the entire planet.

A surreal scene depicting people dining at wooden tables on a grassy area, with a view of Earth from space in the background and a starry sky.

These surreal moments pull the viewer out of the ordinary immediately, but anchor them with familiar scenery that looks pulled out of a 1960s photo album.

An astronaut stands in a colorful flower field, gazing up at a star-filled galaxy in the night sky.
