Monday on “Why Art?” with SHILLR | Presented by [wildxyz](https://twitter.com/wildxyz) ✨

We had an amazing chat w/ [Rebecca Rose](https://twitter.com/rebeccarosenft) about art, science, and everything in between 💙

We couldn't resist sharing Rebecca's answers to our weekly question, Why Art? 🔽

_“To ask why art? Makes it sound like I had a choice in the matter and I didn't. I'm glad that I don't have a choice because this is who I am, and this is how I've always been, and this is how it will continue to be.” -_ Rebecca Rose_, Why Art? w/ SHILLR \[Presented by Wildxyz\]._

[Bernardo’s Art Café](https://twitter.com/bernardo_cafe): From the Archives ☕️

### [**art gm #14 -** Claire Silver**: AI Artist 🌐**](https://twitter.com/bernardo_cafe/status/1623813717195464713)

_Claire is an AI-collaborative artist who creates work that is transcendental & is often paired with transhumanist thoughts._

_Though primarily a digital artist, Claire's work utilizes oil, acrylic, GAN, Procreate, collage, photography & other methods to create her finished work._

Originally posted Feb 9, 2023.

![Image](https://substack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com/public/images/37771911-7c58-4944-8ecf-f85bbcc0d3f5_1322x2036.jpeg "Image")

I vibe with Claire's art because it's one of the most elegant displays of AI tech out there. It serves as a multifaceted comment on humanity, one which feels significant & deeply personal.

I see Claire as a pioneer of AI, both with her art & her educating of the community on AI.

A great entry into Claire's catalogue is through 'Imprimatura'.

Created by a mix of hand-sketching, digital painting & AI smoothing, it's a great example of Claire's multi-leveled artistic talent

If I had unlimited ETH I would cop 'Pieces' - Claire's first minted work using DALL-E 2.

The beauty of this piece is clear, but the meaning makes it even more powerful. It depicts a lifetime of chaotic moments coming together to form a coherent purpose.
