Transcendence

Transcendence represents a meeting point between what is dangerous and what is delicate, and it is precisely in the transition that beauty manifests itself into something divine and unreachable, like poetry.

Transcendence also represents the meeting point between human and artificial. Photography has been exposed to the digital revolution just as our creativity today is defined through a prompt. The democratisation process that is once again taking place is necessary but inevitably leads to ethical reflections. Therefore, I now find myself experimenting with AI for the creation of photographic images that I have in mind but could never realise with real elements, like fire.

In this series, AI takes over as a support for special effects and allows me to overcome a limitation imposed by reality.

I achieved this result by processing the image through Nano Banana (Google Gemini) and Midjourney, starting with a photo of my hands that I took with a simple smartphone on a neutral background.
