Synthetic photography explorations in digital latent space.

The artwork were created using a custom, diffusion-based generative model, which transforms random noise into a detailed image through a learned denoising process. The diffusion model used in creating the images is fine-tuned using my own photos taken in 2008 - 2024.

The model is then manipulated through custom settings, glitching and blending algorithmic precision with creative unpredictability. The output images are formed within the digital latent space of the diffusion model architecture, resembling the process of latent imagery in analog photography. The final images resemble photos but are synthetic, digitally produced.
