A lone palm tree stands as a relic of a lost natural world, now surrounded by chaos, pollution, and failing AI systems.
Felt-tip pens on paper were used to draw the landscape and highway interchange layout. The elements were then cut out and layered onto fabric to add dimensionality. AI-generated cars were created using Stable Diffusion, then cut out and manually arranged to form the congested traffic.
Texture processing and animation were applied using custom homemade scripts.
