“Hybrid Species” showcases Hummel’s expertise in digital tools, using a range of software including Adobe Photoshop, Adobe AfterEffects, Maxon Cinema4D, Stable Diffusion, Midjourney and Adobe Firefly. The project’s 4K resolution (4096x4096px) ensures viewers can appreciate the intricate details of each floral piece. Hummel’s AI-integrated workflow allows for a dynamic and iterative process, where designs evolve through a delicate balance of human intention and machine randomness. By tapping into the potential of artificial intelligence, Hummel has expanded his artistic capabilities to create flora that are both synthetic and real, rooted in nature but reborn through technology.
