This piece is inspired by the Greek myth of Prometheus. Prometheus, a Titan, stole fire from the gods and gave it to humans. He was punished by Zeus and tortured by an eagle for eternity.
I have brought these symbols in for my metaphor about the arrival of AI art. The image depicts a woman holding a glowing skull, representing the promethean flame, it brings with it knowledge but also a kind of death as it transforms the art world. Swirling black feathers and an eagle's face symbolize the potential consequences of taking the flame and utilising AI art. Much like the punishment that Prometheus faced. The piece suggests that while AI art may hold great power and potential, there may also be significant and lasting negative consequences to consider.
This image was created with AI as a composite of three different AI outputs, after generating text prompt images and then reinitialising them as sources to generate new sources until the required pieces were generated.
