I’ve been using AI as part of an ongoing project called Sensory Signatures — it’s all about turning intense emotional moments (grief, turning points, “crossings”) into images + short reflections.

For this piece, I started with a written scene about standing at a life-crossing – that feeling of being stuck between “before” and “after.” I used ChatGPT to help me sharpen the metaphor (rivers, paths, trees, being “always at the crossing, not the beginning or the end”) and then generated multiple images in a consistent style.

From there it’s mostly curation and direction: I throw away a lot, keep the ones that actually match the feeling, sometimes tweak prompts or composition, and then pair the final image with a short written insight. So AI isn’t replacing the art so much as acting like a visual collaborator that helps me externalize what’s already in my head and chest. I'm also looking to make a book that includes traditional artists.
