Video - final frontier?

I am pondering my big question: How to combine 'Real' and 'Image' beyond steel and enamel. I found that video is an interesting medium and am spending some time learning more. Turns out that inspired me to silkscreen, make casting molds and paint on actual paper.

Fascinating work in progress.

Real: Silver cast ring

Real: Dried Tulip and Hyacinth

Krea.ai image

Silkscreen

Real: Silkscreened paper

Real: Silkscreened and watercolor paper

Real: Silkscreen, watercolor and ink paper

I adore old tattered botanical prints, strange jewelry and alien plant creatures, so I combined all those in Krea and screen printed them on nice thick paper. Watercolors give the 19th century chromolithography coloring and aging. The botanical names are of course made up, but adhere to the proper standardized Latin binomial system of Carl Linnaeus.

I'll be giving workshops at my favorite maker space about Krea.ai and it's uses for inspiration and iteration in traditional techniques including painting, glass, metal, ceramics, textile, print making and casting. (Dutch and English)
