unwearable_404
Based on my long-standing passion for sneakers, the series "unwearable_404" deals with the experimental use of artificial intelligence paired with caligraffiti and invents fictitious advertising for shoes in combination with extraterrestrial models that both don't actually exist.
The "unwearable_404" series is an artistic approach, using midjourney AI as an intermediate step for creating new fashion and the models that promote the footwear. Merging digital worlds with real calligraphic handlettering, this series creates a fusion of fiction and reality, blurring the lines between wishful thinking and reality.
The term “unwearable_404” is based on the one hand on the unwearability of the designed models and on the other hand on the error message “404” because the shoes are not buyable online. The complete series consists of 33 fictional ads and therefore intended to appeal to sneaker enthusiasts and critical spirits alike.
