"Postcards from America" is a campaign by Erik Ravelo/The Illegal Studio aimed at fighting 
gun violence and school shootings in the United States. Sharing a clear and direct message: 
Stop the bullets.The concept is inspired by the famous scene from "Matrix".

A visual project to illustrate certain words that artificial intelligence often considers as a forbidden
 
/Prompt. While working on Midjourney I discovered that some words are against community standards. 
Typing words like "children stopping bullets with their hands" And a few other words related to the 
subject, are also often detected as a Banned Prompt. Having a difficult time getting the right answer. 
For this reason, the series is entirely designed in photoshop.

Portraits of children + bullets were generated as separate images with AI. Then in a 2d time,
 there's a lot of Photoshop editing work to compose the final images of the project.
