Introduction.

Belgian AI artist Elmo Mistiaen creates 'biomorphic outdoor fashion & weird design'. Mistiaen has been fascinated by insects since a young age: "I saw them as aliens living among us." During his studies in Business Engineering at the Free University of Brussels, he continued to play with that imagination in his free time. He began enlarging microscopic organic forms to human scale using AI and assimilating them into fictional body pieces. The designer within him took over: since his graduation, he has been working on a digital fantasy world where he blurs the boundaries between human and nature.
