Allow us to introduce fennel – a personal AI work by Jan Daniel Wolters and Davey van Biezen

“I recently teamed up with Davey van Biezen on an AI collaboration, working in a shared Discord channel with Midjourney where we could follow each other’s progress in real time and react instantly.

It all began with Davey’s infrared photograph of a fennel bulb: Davey pushed it into a fan-like, Mandelbrot-inspired fractal, while I let go of the original form to explore structure, estrangement, and material illusion.” Jan Daniel Wolters, photographer and AI artist.

Fennel, also called bulb fennel or common fennel, is actually not a bulb, but an above-ground bulb native to the Mediterranean region. Fennel isn’t even closely related to onions; the layers are the only similarity. In fact, fennel bulbs are most closely related to carrots.
