Crossfade with Stable Diffusion, 2022

I started with a snap of Untitled (Ocean) by Vija Celmins and drove it towards Hokusai's "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" using text prompts in stable diffusion. The imagery in the center is completely synthetic and contain no parts of the end points. Finally the woodblock was cut by a computer-controlled CNC mill.
