Metamorphe


Metamorphe is a collaborative series by Reuben Wu and Jenni Pasanen that merges human artistry with machine intelligence. Over six months, the duo created six hybrid works that fuse GAN-generated imagery, painting, and photography. The result is a surreal vision of Earth transformed, where landscapes morph into colossal, decaying forms that echo extinct life, existing in a fleeting, fevered state. By combining emotion-driven human creativity with the limitless imagination of machines, the artists crafted a new visual language through layered, iterative collaboration.
