‘Venice is the city of mirrors, the city of mirages, at once solid and liquid, at once air and stone.’ – Erica Jong. ‘Venice is a Dorian Gray city. Somewhere up there in the world’s attic, there’s another place with the haggard, poxed and ravaged face of an unspeakable evil. And I suspect it’s Cardiff.’ –A.A. Gill The original Ai image dreamed with Stable Diffusion in Hieronymus Bosch's style then digitally painted. I thought about the details further, saw new creatures in them and painted it like an oil painting. The whole artwork required a lot of post-production.
