Stone Laboratories
Maker of Refined Adventuring Apparatuses, Art and Props
Stone Laboratories is a design studio that offers custom Sci-Fi props and acoutrements.
Website still under contruction...but for now:
Stone Laboratories is an artistic side project by Goth
Rock musician, Ian Stone. Embracing an unlikely pastiche of Steampunk
and Dieselpunk, Outsider art and the dark, timeworn richness of Primitve
Folk Art the result is a strange, retro-futurist vision rooted in the
combined aesthetics of sci-fi, classic horror, and ragdoll rusticity. Imagine the Victorian
sci-fi of H.G. Wells and Jules Verne, wrapped in the velvet webs of E.A.
Poe, combined with the creeping rural horrors of H.P. Lovecraft and Algernon
Blackwood, and then made into a movie by Fritz Lang and Tim Burton. A bit of an
exaggeration, perhaps, but you get the idea. Stone Laboratories uses this
eclectic mix to create both 2D art and 3D accoutrements out of a tangled
process of found object assemblage, paint, collage techniques, digital
manipulation, kitbashing and creative insanity ingenuity.
Stone Laboratories purveys most pieces through eBay, local shoppes in the upstate NY area, and via Commissioned jobs. Selected direct sales appear from time to time as well.
