story: Imagined Reality
artist: Alejandra Loaiza

Between art and fashion, the use of Artificial Intelligence has contributed to a division between artists who look at technology in different ways. In a series of images, “Imagined Reality” unites AI with the human spirit of art.  This editorial breathes new life into the worlds of Basquiat and Louis Vuitton. In a reproduction of artist Hugo Barbera's AI work, incredibly human images emerge, through an experimental and artistic process that gives stage to the humanity inherent to art.
