Mid Century Modern Mixed Media Large Scale Cityscape Artwork in Suede and Steel

Offered by: Habitat-Gallery

Description
If Gotham City and a Pierre Cardin fever dream had a love child, it would be this stunning 1970s mixed media artwork. At a striking 48.5 x 48.5 inches, this piece is big, bold, and brimming with postmodern attitude—perfect for anyone who appreciates a little architectural drama in their décor.

Let’s break it down. Seven skyscrapers, all fanned out like a very chic bundle of metallic French fries, rise up from the bottom of the artwork in layers of brushed stainless steel and deep gunmetal accents. These steel monoliths have depth, texture, and just the right amount of shine, giving the entire piece a three-dimensional, sculptural effect.

The background? A rich cognac suede that sets the tone with warmth and depth. And then there’s the sky—if that’s what we’re calling it. A geometric, almost rectangular shape hovers above, starting as a large block in the left center before tapering into a sleek, elongated form stretching across the piece. This celestial element is crafted in dark gray suede, with a sharp black suede bisecting stripe, and a lighter gray suede below—because why settle for one shade of sky when you can have a gradient moment?

Signed in the lower right corner (possibly “Camino”?), this artwork carries an aesthetic reminiscent of Paul Evans meets Pierre Cardin meets a futuristic cityscape on the cover of a 1970s sci-fi novel. It’s giving bold, brutalist, and impeccably crafted. It would be right at home in any mid-century modern, modern, or postmodern space, elevating your walls with a layered, textural masterpiece that’s equal parts architectural and avant-garde.

This isn’t just wall art. It’s a skyline, a mood, a whole vibe.
