You are greater than the sum of your parts

You are greater than the sum of your parts
An exploration of AI Generated imagery created using text prompts, blended images and photoshop. These are a mix of chaotic patterns, organic lifeforms and human abstractions.

Growing up I was always fascinated with science textbooks and encyclopedias, especially those with human anatomy pages. They would layer on top of each, transparent with just the body parts solid. My dad even got me one of those "Transparent Body" models, where you put the guts inside of the transparent layers of organs and skin. I feel a lot of those ideas inspired or fueled these creations.
AI art gives the creator a unique workflow, and in many cases for me starts with blending my own seed images. From these ideas I then augment it visually with text prompts to expand on the theme or setting.

In most of these creations I incorporated fractal equations, nomenclature and pseudo code along with descriptive words to alter the image. I let the bio/organic forms to take shape out of the base images as the process picked up on visual details.
There is a dark mix of organic forms that seem to blend the organs on the outside of the body. Almost like exoskeletons or external breathing apparatuses that have grown out of us. Part body and part bio-machinery, these forms seems to be suspended in time as if in a museum.
Thank you for taking the time to view my work 🖤
