- World concept, art direction and AI image creation
Scale, setting and objects shift the familiar into new interpretations. In this collection, I explored surreal imagery, theatrical compositions and moving illustration with AI. The project shows a visual exploration process built around world creation, colour palettes and attention to detail.
Building a visual world.
Keys, chains, flowers and oversized settings turn a delicate scene into its own visual world. The variations explore character continuity and art direction.
Texture and miniature-like styling.
Forms, texture and soft colours give the image the quality of a handcrafted miniature. A distinct visual direction within the exploration of settings.
The figure within the setting.
Flowers, surfaces and objects integrate the figure into the setting. Contrast and scale shape a scene that reads as both editorial image and fantastical world.
Composition as set design.
Rocks and a neutral background turn the space into a stage. The composition focuses attention on the figure, pose and relationship between forms.
Illustration in motion.
In this short video, floral ornament, illustrated portraiture and movement extend the image beyond a still frame.
