Plant Bags

The plant bag body of work utilises a combination of technology, artificial intelligence and human creativity to explore the tension between nature and artificial perfection. The process typically begins with a hand-drawn sketch. From there, hana feeds the design into a specially trained AI software, generating an image that is later modified in Photoshop. The final product, a “plant bag”--is a surreal combination of a perfect, artificial-looking bag with vibrant, unnatural plants painted with placrylic

The perfectly polished bag contrasts with the unrealistic placement of the plants, questioning the idea that we can artificially "improve" nature. At its core, the work is a statement about sustainability and the impossibility of truly altering the natural world through technological or synthetic means. It’s an ironic reflection on AI's and digital tools attempt to recreate the organic, showing that while AI and digital tools can create flawless designs, nature’s inherent imperfections are irreplaceable
