"The idea of transhumanism is fascinating, but it's also fraught with danger. We need to be very careful about how we proceed with enhancing human capabilities, both for ethical reasons and to avoid unintended consequences."

Lore and Legends;
Ex machina
The Lore and Legends collection presents a compelling and visually captivating exploration of the ethical and philosophical issues surrounding the relationships between human consciousness and advanced technology. The use of gods and mythological creatures as allegorical representations adds a layer of depth and complexity to the artwork, highlighting the potential risks and benefits of such relationships with digital superintelligence (magic and divinity respectively).
The pale color palette, combined with a subject-focused polygon design on large fields of negative space, creates a futuristic yet familiar atmosphere that enhances the collection's overall theme. The emotional and thought-provoking composition further emphasizes the potential consequences of merging with AI, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork on a deeper level.
Storytelling through layered symbolism and mixed metaphor provides a unique perspective on the topic, adding a lighthearted and playful tone to what can often be a heavy and daunting subject. Through this approach, the collection offers a warning about the potential dangers of merging with AI while also acknowledging the natural human desire, whether by seduction or coercion, towards perfection and advancement.
