CROSS-POLLINATION

---

I am fortunate to be a part of a small group of artists that meets to discuss artwork and ideas.  While exploring the idea of collaboration, we exchanged nature photographs to use as collective inspiration.

I went one step further with the collaboration, writing prompts for AI - specifically DALL-E-2, created by OpenAI - describing eight of the photographs.  I curated the images that spoke to me best (and worked with a vertical orientation), and used gel plate printed recycled papers to create small machine stitched paper quilts for each one.

I then bound them all together with an accordion binding, using an antique tin to house the resulting artist book.
