By merging contemporary aesthetic codes with those of earlier periods, Justine van den Driessche investigates how images contribute to the construction of collective narratives and cultural memory. Fictional landscapes, hybrid temporalities and the fluidity of gender identities emerge through disenchanted figures, visual fictions haunted by the logic of obsolescence, whether technological, aesthetic, or environmental. Her work has been featured in several artistic events across Europe, most recently at Le Hangar in Brussels as part of the AImagine &ndash; Photography and Generative Images exhibition in 2025. She holds a Master&rsquo;s degree in Visual and Spatial Arts from Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Brussels and a Bachelor in Fine Arts from Universit&eacute; Paris 8. In 2024, she was selected as a laureate by Le Hangar for the Prompt &ndash; Photography and Generative Image project, chaired by art historian Michel Poivert.

Justine van den Driessche - AI

Justine van den Driessche explores how AI-generated images shape collective narratives and cultural memory by merging contemporary and historical aesthetics. Through fictional landscapes and disenchanted figures, her work reflects on technological, aesthetic, and environmental obsolescence. In 2024, she was named a laureate of the Prompt project and recently exhibited at Le Hangar in Brussels.

Immersive Forest reimagines the landscape through the lens of artificial vision, drawing from the romantic tradition where nature is both sublime and unruly. Blending digital techniques with painterly heritage, the series interrogates how generative art reshapes our perception of the natural world.&nbsp;Bathed in mist and mystery, the vegetation evokes a phantasmagoric realm&mdash;a forest as myth, not memory. The chimerical forms conjured by AI pull us into a space where authenticity and illusion blur, inviting contemplation on the digital sublime.&nbsp;More than a tribute to romantic landscape, Immersive Forest reinterprets it&mdash;offering a vision of nature that is as much constructed as it is imagined.
