Pig Judge
Short Description
Pig Judge is a satire of institutional power. The glossy, candy-colored figures transform symbols of justice into objects of spectacle, reducing the robe, the bench, and the gavel to theatrical costumes and props. Generated through AI, the work embraces exaggeration as critique, producing forms that are at once playful and unsettling. The result exposes authority as a comedy sustained by spectacle and posture rather than truth and principle.

Built in Midjourney. I started from simple prompts, kept the strongest results, then edited and iterated on them—changing whatever didn’t feel right—until an image landed. From there, I made variations to build out the series.
