A Glimpse of Claire Silver’s Artistic Path

‍

Similar to Infinity Eve’s story, Claire Silver's journey into the world of art began in a challenging period in 2018 when she suffered a serious illness and lost her job. When she overcame and recovered, this changed her life and encouraged her to start trying new things. Thanks to the Internet and forums, Claire understood the principle of cryptocurrency and began to take her first steps when a first-of-its-kind, CryptoPunks project was gifted to her.

‍

From classical art materials, Claire started to embrace digital techniques such as Procreate and GAN. Her artistic creations blend elements of classical art, mythology, fairy tales, and mystical elements, all this is processed with the help of AI. This fusion of diverse themes and AI collaboration produced a captivating effect on her works. She realized that in the modern world, art can have any shape, size, or manifestation options so she harnessed various materials and technologies to craft her pieces.

“I’m collaborating with AI to create transcendent art- art that awakens wordless truth in the viewer”

‍

One of her major inspirations is the AI community where artists come to innovate and push boundaries in a way she never thought of. This community became a wellspring of encouragement for Claire, as she found friends and heroes who ignited her own passion. Claire's engagement with the AI community opens a network of inspiration and support that empowers her to push the boundaries of creativity.

‍

Claire Silver began releasing her first digital works in 2020, already combining neural networks with classical art. The first NFT - Shapeshifter was released in February 2021.

Takeaways for AI starters

‍

Start with the most friendly websites like Midjourney, Dreamstudio AI, and Stable Diffusion. It’s fun at the start but sooner you will get bored generating AI, and that is your queue to start pushing! When she prompts AI, she’s not just typing. She has her diary where she puts all the elements she loved and imagined - memories, colors, film, lyrics, poetry, pieces etc - all combined in one prompt so what comes out of that art is her taste, her style, her artist signature, all her! And from then, you can reinvent text videos, mix them with snippets of films and piece them together, play with music and like the art, combine it with remix genres, etc. Start with simple art and go where your instincts take you. Don't be afraid to experiment!
