The series titled '/imagine prompt' is generated by an AI image generator program. Among four completed series, 'inside of movie's refrigerator' is the second work following 'a swimming pool for artist'. It contains 86 diptyques of fridges and contents.

The series titled /imagine prompt are generated by an AI image generator program Midjourney, and it is based on the author's curiosity about Ai's creativity. There are four completed series ― ❶ a swimming pool for artist (2023) ❷ inside of movie's refrigerator (2024) ❸ bathroom in the game world (2025) ❹ billiard boards (2025).

The first series a swimming pool for artist (2023) is an assemblage of personal imagination toward artists’ swimming pool as the title literally indicates. The title is literally the command used to make this series. The author wrote down the command as simple as possible to let AI use its creativity. Creativity. It is not an exclusive human property anymore. Create means to make new thing based on accumulated data. When it comes to data, AI has already been overwhelmed individuals. So the author strived to imagine posthumous and contemporary artists' swimming pools in this work. The author spent several days and nights to select photographs. Some photographs came out meaningfully, and others not. The process repeated over and over. The author spent most of time to select images. Finally, more than a hundred photographs came out as final results.

The photographer was still her, not AI, as she was still final decision-holder. Who press the shutter button is not important anymore. Shutter releases are even unnecessary. Concept and context became everything. Before subject matter, the author focused on what types of photographs can only exist in AI world, not in the real world. In this point, it joins with her point of view: one has to choose the best medium to express certain message. She always think of ‘what kind of subjects can be only available or the most meaningful by taking photographs?’. And she has to consider one more thing ― which one is the best subject matter Then she finally came up with the topic ― swimming pools of admired artists. There's also a handmade book case with this Ai photo book. It is made by ceramic tiles, silicon, paper clay, and hard paper. The contrast between the Ai book and the handmade case makes this project look more aesthetic.

The second series inside of movie's refrigerator (2024) combines movies and refrigerators, while the first project was a combination of artists and swimming pools. The swimming pool project focused on subject matter that cannot be seen and photographed in the real world. Comparatively, the refrigerator project intentionally describes fake world as it is related to the movies. Every work in this series is displayed in the form of diptyques to show the outside appearance of fridges and their inside representative content which is usually fruits, vegetables, drinks, et cetera.

The third series bathroom in the game world (2025) focused on a subject matter that cannot be seen and photographed in the real world. And lastly, the only subject matter in the latest series billiard boards (2025) is billiard balls. The author considered how to make 'image narrative' through a single subject.
