Ghost in The Code
In an era dominated by artificial intelligence, screens, and constant digital stimulation, I chose to make AI my muse.
Not as a tool, not as a reference, and not as a collaborator, but as an idea that inspired me to create something entirely by hand.
Every line in this piece was born from intuition, presence, and imagination. Technology can generate images, accelerate processes, and imitate styles, but it cannot replace the human experience behind a work of art.
It cannot feel, wonder, or create meaning.
While creating this piece, this was all I could think about: The work of an illustrator will never be threatened, because the soul of an artist cannot be automated.
Medium: Indian ink pen and watercolours on Bristol paper.
