"Steampunk Market Street" - The Visualization of the Social Landscape through the Physical Landscape Series

"A romantic yet dangerous vision of pure market-based society - beautiful abundance paired with real risk and individual responsibility. This represents the dream of true meritocracy, where opportunities abound but success depends entirely on personal wit and effort. The warm, bustling marketplace suggests a world of voluntary exchange and community gathering, but the fantasy elements remind us this is an idealized version of capitalism that has never quite existed. It's simultaneously alluring and ruthless - a place where freedom and peril walk hand in hand."
