Those who were wishing a few years ago that steampunk would crawl into a hole and quietly die must be gnashing their teeth at the way the sub-genre continues to flourish. (See Pinterest<\/a> for examples from the increasingly wild world of steampunk fashion.) If anyone reading this is visiting Seoul in the next couple of months\u2014or even living there\u2014then they’ll find some of my book covers on display at Artcenter IDA. Steampunk: The Art of Victorian Futurism<\/em><\/a> is a look at the wide range of steampunk aesthetics, from graphic works to three-dimensional constructions, clothing, and so on. I’d like to credit the promotional design above but I’m not sure who’s responsible. Good type design whoever it was.<\/p>\n

Five of my covers are on display, including the three I’ve done for KW Jeter’s novels. Mr Jeter, as mentioned before, is the man who first coined the term “steampunk” in the 1980s. This isn’t the first time my artwork has appeared in South Korea\u2014when I was painting cards for Magic: The Gathering<\/em> in the 1990s there were Korean editions printed\u2014but it is the first time anything of mine has been exhibited there. The exhibition runs to mid-May.<\/p>\n
