Model Surrealisms / 2022

In this project, I started working with large image Machine Learning models (like Dall-E and MidJourney), as a natural transition from my generative art work. I used these models as my partners in crime: brainstorming and curating ideas with them, and then molding that draft into something that I can look at and say 'yeah, that looks like something I made'. To be clear: none of these images are directly from those models, and unless indicated, there's no actual pixels/styles/etc. from those generations. They are, however, all weird visual puns, my favourite part of surrealism.
