Each of these photographs is a still from a movie.

A moment in time is captured from AI-reanimated sequences which have brought the subjects to life.

Legacy presents today’s rich and powerful alongside historical figures to give a new take on power, celebrity and the passage of time.

Merging AI and conventions of traditional photography.

The images capture moments in time that never existed, They are clearly synthetic AI creations that gain a sense of reality when put into print.
