“ THE AMERICANS”

This is not America as it is, but as we remember it, desire it, and sometimes invent it.

This photo series is a road trip through the symbols and dreams of America inspired by The Americans by Robert Frank and the free spirit of Jack Kerouac in On The Road.

With AI, these images create an America that feels both real and imagined filled with diners, neon signs, old cars... The photos use familiar “clichés”, not to make fun of them, but to show how stories and truth often mix in our minds.

These are not real memories.

They are images of what we think we remember scenes shaped by movies, books, ads, and dreams.

Through AI, we revisit small towns, motel rooms, and empty roads, searching for a version of America that may never have truly existed but exist in our mind.
