Queer Formations | Series One is the Ai Collaborative Genesis Collection built between Fantastic Planet, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion.
The different forms I have taken during my life as a Queer Latinx Artist have been generated in this collaborative experiment. My feelings. Life Experiences. Men in my life. Friends I have lost. All of it starts with this Genesis Collection.
We are forever changing and forming as queer people. Forever re-forming again and again. To be seen as simply one thing, or one form isn’t the reality. I have constantly shifted my shape, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
__
As Genesis Collectors of these tokens, I grandfather Series One holders with forever pricing in future Queer Formations Series and editions. As this collection and experiment grow, those who have been here from this moment will always pay the mint price of this token for future pieces within the Queer Formations Collection.
Each NFT is priced at 0.12 ETH

Birth of a Gemini
Ai Collaboration : MidJourney, StableDiffusion, Disco Diffusion, Photoshop
Birth of a Gemini is a restrospect of my life from birth to childhood through the collaborative lens of Ai. I have used many self potraits of myself to help generate reference points when using these Ai platforms. This is the first of five collections. Growing up queer and half latino always made me feel like an outsider from my family, friends and even myself. Having the opportunity to process these feelings through art and Ai collaboration has allowed me to continue to accept my upbringing as a blessing. These first few images of Birth of a Gemini are only a sliver of the entire collection I have collaborated started. This will continue to be a lifelong journey and commitment to me and to other artists to come. Exploring ones past is never easy and is some of the hardest work I have ever done in my life. I have never felt more connected to myself and my art than I do now collaborating with Ai.

HERITAGE
Digital Video and Image NFT collection - Foundation Exclusive
This video series is an exploration and homage to things in my past that represent tiny fractions of my heritage, sexuality and artistic aesthetic I have built a brand around myself with.
Growing up half Mexican, I only knew that my fathers side of the family were all from Mexico. We never learned Spanish. We were hidden from our culture and background our entire lives. That was a choice my father made.
I have battled with "feeling" Mexican and being queer my entire life.
This project has allowed me to explore, appreciate and re-claim my heritage as a Queer Latinx Artist for the first time in my life.
Everyday is a battle, and now I turn those moments into love and peace with myself.
