for this project I wanted to use AI on images that I had taken to try and show how we are damaging the planet in many different ways. so I want to use my images to make people think what can we do to stop it?

the idea behind this three piece image was inspired by Michael Marten’s sea change however I made my piece different to his and interpreted it in my own way by getting a picture in town and using AI to make a past and present image of what this image could have possibly looked like in the past and future. I thought this fit the theme of Anthropocene as it shows much we have changed the planet from the past to the present and possibly what the planet could like in the future.

this image that I edited aims to show Anthropocene through pollution that we have caused in the sea and on the surface of are planet I done this by using AI to add things to the image such litter and a construction site to the image. I think this image helps shows what we need to change in order to stop these problems we have that have been happening for a long period of time. I liked how this came out because the shadow is creeping up slowly on the other side of the image to represent the fact that the damage humans have done has almost taken over everywhere. I also like how the image looks similar to a painting which gives it more of a dramatic effect to the image.

in my opinion I think this image was a bit over the top with everything that was happening in it but I also think it still achieves what I wanted to produce and I think it does a great job at that. this is because, it demonstrates everything that is a problem in the modern day planet such as planes that are polluting the air all-over the globe along with the abundance of litter that’s been left in this location even the fact that there is a bin in plain sight

i think these three images perfectly showed off over population as you had all these buildings pilled up on top of each other with narrow streets filled up to the brim with cars everywhere which would get in your way when trying to navigate the small town. also another issue these three photos may represent is mass tourism which could be the reason why these small towns maybe over populated in holidays such as the summer and winter.

inconclusion I believe that I was successful with portraying Anthropocene in many different ways by showing various different ways we pollute the planet (overpopulation, air pollution, littering, construction and polluting are seas).

virtual gallery

for my virtual gallery I decided to use the images I decided was the best images out of all of my final outcomes. I decided to put them in a gallery of there own so they stand out and speak for themselves which suits the topic of Anthropocene. I also included some of my typography images as well to go along with them in a separate gallery as I didn’t want them to get jumbled up with my Anthropocene images. for next time I think I should take more photos so I can come out with more final outcomes and more photos to edit for next time.
