Ahem.
Well, it’s been a while since we’ve released a product, and this one couldn’t be more timely. Whether the presence of eerily incorrect images on social media bothers you in your soul parts, you cannot abide plagiarism, or you cannot tolerate the environmental damage perpetrated by these large language and synthetic data generation models, this art print and sticker were made for you!
How It Came To Be:
The explosion of “generative AI”* for the average user has not gone unnoticed by the art community. There isn’t a one of us that approved in advance of these engines scraping our images for their content, nor one of us who doesn’t find the images wrong in some way. So Ariela wanted to do a piece highlighting our feelings on the subject. Terri suggested that it have three raised middle fingers, and it obviously had to be in a medium done entirely by humans. So what you have is either a sticker or an archival art print of a lovely watercolor giving you an impossibly rude gesture.
The print run is a limited edition run of just 250 art prints. Each print is matted on a black, archival-safe mat and comes ready to hang or to put in a standard 8”x10” frame. The stickers do not have a limit, and arrive in a plain business envelope with free shipping.
