Created using digital software and the generative AI Midjourney, from textual descriptions only; no reference image was imported into the creative process.
Edition: 1/30 — print limited to 30 copies.
Each print is hand-signed by the artist and numbered on the back, guaranteeing authenticity and traceability of the work within the limited edition.

Framing: Unframed — ready to frame. The artist recommends a presentation with a wide mat, or even extra-large, which gives the image additional depth and breathing space. This suggestion is, of course, optional — the work adapts to all presentation choices.
Format: 40 × 30 cm.
Shipping: Professional packaging with non-fleece cotton gloves — worldwide shipping.
About the artist
It is first through photography that the need to create reveals itself in Sandra. By manipulating her images as support and medium, she gives birth to works that hover between real and imaginary.
Fascinated by the artistic direction possibilities offered by artificial intelligence, her approach remains instinctive and emotional. She guides and shapes AI as a material: choosing, mixing and kneading descriptions, keywords, iterations and parameters, until obtaining exactly the shot of her own imagination.
Thus, if the photographer captures the present moment of a reality, Sandra—the IA-graph—captures a moment from her imagination, translated into reality by the generated image.
Her style is recognizable in the play she makes with blurring boundaries: between reality and imagination, between photography and IA-graphy, between the masculine and the feminine. Love, melancholy, identity and intimacy are at the heart of her creations, which she presents with sensuality and lyricism.
