I have mixed feelings about generative AI.
Like most artists, I struggle to reconcile its value with its many disruptions. I used it here, to help realize a concept Iโve had for years.
Conceptual Exercise
Alto Terrestre, or โHigh Earth,โ is the first personal project of mine to use generative AI (although there was plenty of photography and pixel polishing involved). I simply never had the bandwidth to build it from scratch, at least not to the extent I imagined.
The Concept
A designer label that ignores the human aspect. Clothes and accessories more interested in materials than models. Fashion unhampered by feasibility, wardrobes only wearable in theory. It is a celebration of nature, made with artificial compromise.
