Fashion Design, Sculpture and Art Direction 

 This project presents a series of wearable garments, a fashion shoot, and a lookbook that examine the impact of technology on ideology, particularly through the lens of AI and machine learning. The garments were inspired by visual outputs from a custom-trained stable diffusion model, which informed the design process in collaboration with a fashion designer.

Drawing on the ideas of thinkers like Mark Fisher, K Allado McDowell, and Dr. Daniel Felstead, the project is built around a weird fiction narrative that explores cryptids and monsters as metaphors for hidden complexities within AI and latent space.

Currently featured in an ongoing group exhibition on monsters, the work is showcased at venues including the Hockney Gallery in Kensington.
