Ghost Painting — a Midjourney Exploration into the Spirit World of Japan
A breath of the past captured in prompts
It was a pure coincidence that catapulted me into the captivating world of Ghost Painting. There, on Medium, I stumbled upon the articles by Mitsuki Nonaka, who vividly and comprehensively described this genre of art.
Ghost Painting, a relic from Japan’s magical past, weaves a tapestry of literature, regional folklore, and a generous dose of religious belief.
The millennia-old culture of Japan exerts a magnetic pull on me. The symbiosis of tradition and modernity celebrated here is simply awe-inspiring. And then there’s the aesthetics of Japanese art, a minimalist masterpiece for the senses.
So, I dared to venture into the eerie and beautiful spirit world of Japan, allowing Midjourney to prompt some peculiar interpretations onto the canvas.
See for yourselves.
