Istanbul-based photographer Alper Yesiltas uses Artificial Intelligence to see what historical icons would look like today. Alper created the hyper-realistic portraits for a project titled Thisness. Behind this project lies the question “What would some iconic people look like if they lived in our time instead of living in theirs?”
Yesiltas used the original photos of these individuals to create modern-day portraits. With the help of AI, he reconstructs their outfits and the composition of the photo before editing the image to transform these historical legends into modernized icons.
Alper Yesiltas is a lawyer and photographer living in Istanbul, Turkey. He has been imagining scenes and capturing memories for about 19 years now.
