Photographic Mixed-media: Original photography reimagined through design, digital compositing and generative tools.
Brief: This ongoing body of work explores how original photography can be transformed through generative AI, digital compositing, graphic design, typography, texture, and other creative techniques. Each piece being with a photograph I captured. From there, I reinterpret the image beyond the original moment, turning it into something new: an album cover, travel poster, vintage advertisement, editorial image, surreal scene, or visual concept that could not have existed in-camera.
For me, the goal is not to replace photography with AI but to expand what photography can become. The photograph remains the foundation. The mixed-media process becomes the second act.
