AI image generator will respond to the minimal monochrome expression you have in mind?

Air Perspective with AI Generator

The image above is a prototype for the challenge of whether it is possible to express aerial perspective using an AI generator.
I decided to try out a concept that goes one step beyond simple monochrome expression using AI.
Aerial perspective is also known to have been studied by Leonardo da Vinci, but I interpret it as the aesthetic sense of Japanese ink painting.
This is the result of rehearsing the prompt dozens of times.

Challenge of minimalist monochrome expression

I explored the works of 20th-century minimalist photographers and learned the secrets of their beauty. I also focused on conveying my experiences and knowledge of monochrome photography as prompts to an AI generator, reflecting them in my images. The generator I used is FLUX.1 from Black Forest Lab. I used is Black Forest Lab’s FLUX.1

About FLUX

AI image generator is a general term for tools that generate images and text using various AI technologies. While specific developers vary widely, representative tools include OpenAI, Google GEN2,3, and Midjourney. The Flux.1 used this time aims to support the process and provide new inspiration to artists and designers, meaning it is intended to support the creative process and offer new inspiration to artists and designers.

Key Points of Minimalism Generation

I have summarized some points to keep in mind when expressing in Flux.1.
These considerations are also common when taking photographs.

About the expression of minimalism

• Emphasis on simplicity: Eliminate unnecessary elements and use only the minimum necessary shapes and lines.
• Utilization of contrast: Use the contrast between black and white to create visual impact.
• Texture innovation: Incorporating different textures and patterns is effective for conveying a sense of material.
• Use of space: Effectively use white space to provide visual breathing room.
• Exploration of shapes: Experiment with geometric and organic shapes to create visual rhythm.
• Expression of emotions: Pay attention to shapes and arrangements to convey emotions and aim for designs that resonate with the heart.

To achieve success in monochrome expression with AI generator

• Balance of light and dark: Be aware of the contrast between bright and dark areas to create visual impact.
• Use of texture: Incorporate different textures and patterns to convey depth even in monochrome.
• Simple composition: Eliminate unnecessary elements and aim for a simple and clean composition, keeping the principles of minimalism in mind.
• Exploration of shapes: Experiment with geometric and organic shapes to create visual rhythm.
• Use of negative space: Utilizing negative space gives the work breathing room and highlights the elements.
• Creativity in prompts: Make the prompts given to AI specific and clearly convey the desired style and atmosphere.

Results of the Challenge

I became acutely aware that the key to successful AI image generation, whether color or monochrome, is the repeated elaboration of the prompts, which determines success. Some images have problems with gradations in bright areas. Too much whiteout. This problem can be fixed using image editing software such as Lightroom Classic or Photoshop. However, my question is how much can AI generate? That’s what it means. One This is because I think it is important to refine the prompt now, rather than muddying things up with post-processing.
