Welcome to "Between Reality and the Imaginary," a collection where the familiar meets the extraordinary through the lens of AI surreal photography/synthography. As a Mexican-born, now U.S.-based graphic designer, my passion for surrealism and photography has its roots in my childhood. I fondly recall the captivating sights and scenes of my homeland, captured through my ever-present camera. "El Nopal" pays tribute to the landscapes that shaped me, evoking a deep sense of belonging and the profound connection between humanity and nature. It represents my upbringing amidst vast cactus fields that have become part of my identity. This collection is an exploration of my past, a nostalgic journey back to Mexico. Using AI, I'm able to create new photos, adding a surreal twist to my cherished memories. This isn't just art; it's a deeply personal reflection of my cultural roots. Step in, and experience the magic of surreal Mexico through my eyes.
