Red Cat Series, Abstract Character Development with Artificial Intelligence
Midjourney, an AI artistic tool, creates stunning portraits but avoids full-body images where the face is visible. The Red Cat Series investigates this limitation using images of red cats representing different professions, against neutral post-industrial backdrops.
The tension and storytelling in each image are achieved through outpainting, problem-solving, and prompt engineering.
While the reason for Midjourney’s limitation is still unclear, the Red Cat Series highlights the versatility of digital media in producing realistic textures on clothing and backgrounds. Midjourney Version 5 can now produce full-body portraits, but the Red Cat Series was created using version 4.
