This digital sketch shows a robot in a state of rest connected by means of a power cable to the power grid. He is simulating the inaction that comes with resting, sitting with his two arms back to show greater ease.
The idea comes from a series that recently premiered its second season: Westwold. In this series, most of the characters are androids with human features. As human copies of high quality, they have the wide range of actions of humans, so it’s not strange at all the fact they can sleep too.
What will be the dreams of a robot? Are they just noise? These questions are also deepened by the show. The TV series propose the fact that the androids called "hosts" remember everything in an exact way, their memories are not fuzzy, but rather lived and they can even get lost in them, like the case of the main protagonist Dolores Abernathy, which discovered that the bait of the "violent delights" (which was what humans wanted her to see) is just a beauty that’s so ephemeral and captivating, but behind them are hidden "violent ends”. This super capacity to remember makes them have equal dreams of life, which are not remnants of their "lives" or past plots that are housed in their central memory.
Without much more to say, I wanted to capture those characteristics mentioned above in the post in this painting.
