New advancements in software offers opportunity for artists and illustrators to reimagine historical people and events. Archival imagery, combined with AI‘s cross-referencing capabilities and 3D imagining software, allows us to render portraits and people in ways that ignite the imagination and bring intimacy to, in this case, US presidents.
Showcasing images of these men is not an endorsement of their beliefs, positions, or crimes. This is an exercise that uses creative platforms to re-approach people and events in ways we did not previously consider. This is one of several collections in progress.
Next up, the Black Social Gospel.
Software: Cinema4D, Photoshop, Procreate, Midjourney
