Melvins: Queen
Melvins: Queen
This one was an exciting thing for me. Like a lot of other nerds, I've been playing with AI prompts to see what might come from playing art director, trying my ideas through someone else's hands.
I think my prompt for this was some sort of sultry femme plague doctor made of egg yolk. Once that came out, I knew I wanted them to live in a cavern of giant eggs, because: Duh.
The AI translated my weird prompt, then I translated it back into my hand and made my choices on top of it. The AI made some lighting choices I would not have, and I loved the output.
Then, I went to my shop to make the second screenprint of the year (it's been a weirdly busy year) and made all of the tactile efforts that come with burning screens, mixing inks, and printing one color at a time.
