I Painted this a few weeks ago as I love Steampunk art as one of my variations.
A one-of-a-kind handcrafted steampunk wall sculpture that blends mechanical engineering with quiet underwater serenity.
“Steampunk Aquarium” is built on a 30" x 30" canvas with a hand-painted acrylic background designed to resemble rich aged mahogany. Mounted on top is a fully constructed network of pipes, valves, gauges and interlocking gears, creating the look of a vintage Victorian machine or submarine control system.
At the heart of the piece sits a brass porthole-style window revealing a miniature aquarium scene – a small, living world protected inside an industrial shell. The contrast between cold machinery and delicate nature gives the work both character and story, drawing you in for closer inspection.
Every component has been individually fabricated and assembled by hand:
- PLA+ filament mechanical parts
- Metallic finishes in copper, bronze and silver
- Reinforced PVC “copper” pipework with internal wooden dowels for strength
- Layered acrylic paintwork for realistic aged timber effect
- Spray-painted metallic brass edges (no frame required – ready to hang)
This is not a print or reproduction – it is an original sculptural artwork with real depth and texture.
