Abstract Synthography Art

In experimenting with synthography I started to explore impossible combinations of materials that couldn't exist in reality, in this case what would happen when you throw molten glass into water. The reactions of water, glass, fire and gravity combined with the colours reflect the hot, cold and the dynamic properties of the reaction and its resemblance to yin-yang, the Chinese symbol for opposite but interconnected, complimentary but, at the same time, adversary. These forces combining to form a dynamic whole.

Synthography is the practice of creating images with computers such as AI, photographic and modelling software and this image was created with Microsoft Image Creator and refined in Photoshop. I discovered image creation with Artificial Intelligence via a random post that came up on my Facebook timeline and, being the technology geek that I am, I was intrigued as to how it was done. I started with portraits as a familiarisation exercise and the AI would allow me to add elements that would be impossible to photograph without extremely expensive studio setups and high speed cameras such as paint splashes. From this I did my first series of images of paint splash portraits. I have since experimented with different objects such as molten glass and water combined, the play of light upon objects and other abstract concepts including science fiction.
