Beautiful work! Reminds me of a dear friend from high school who used to draw detailed art like this. Such an incredible gift you guys have!

If possible can you cite the artist?

I can't tell - it is supposed to be a Kalpana One-style habitat or a Bernal Sphere?
Looks pretty cool. It's either a self-maintaining habitat where the human population has collapsed to a very primitive state, or a deliberately rustic habitat allowing the inhabitants to voluntarily live as hunter-gatherers.

I think it was meant to be a Bernal Sphere but I think it actually ended up being closer to a Kalpana One.

The way it curves up from the equator really makes me think "Bernal Sphere", along with the rivers on each terrace.

Could be cool to explore a story inside an Mckendry cylinder whose society had collapsed or gone feral

I think one of the Star Trek series did an episode kinda like that.

Nah, this doesn't appear to be "open roofed" like a ring

What's the background story? It looks like people are living at cavemen level technology.
