A homage to Hans Ruedi Giger

Hans Ruedi Giger was a Swiss artist best known for his airbrushed images that blended human physiques with machines, an art style known as 'biomechanical'. Giger later abandoned airbrush for pastels, markers and ink.

A very niche contest

Rule: your image must have a flavour of his artwork. However it should not be 'derivative'.

H. R. Giger Quote
''There is hope and a kind of beauty in there somewhere, if you look for it.''

I would add that he died in 2014 and his artwork played a role in the films “Dune” and “Alien”.

You may submit one image. I will not be submitting an image; however the contest icon is an was in part inspired by his artwork.

Each participant may submit 1 image.
