IMPORTANT NOTE: This model is a tribute to the artist and not an attempt to copy or reproduce his works. Flux1.D is unable to reproduce a graphic universe on which it was trained, the goal is solely to expand Flux's pictorial capabilities.
The idea is to use this model, combined with others, to create new styles of digital art expression. "Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed" is an apocryphal quote from Antoine Lavoisier. We are somewhat in this vision.
