| Abstract | ||||
| This paper explores the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology in shaping Nubian visual culture and its art forms. It claims that the creative application of AI can enable a dynamic conversation between heritage and modernity, adding value to artistic diversity by offering a new perspective to traditional Nubian heritage without distorting its essential identity. AI-generated imagery presents a novel opportunity for an expanded cross-section of artists to re-engage with their visual cultures and histories. This paper presents the researcher's experimentation with specific AI art models, such as Leonardo, to explore and generate diverse types of designs for textiles, wall hanging, fashion and accessories that capture the essence of Nubian identity while pushing the boundaries of artistic expression. AI-generated imagery represents the new era for Nubian artists and crafts who are on their way to associating tradition with innovation and engaging in a dynamic discourse about culture. Though AI-generated imagery gives rise to entirely new forms of artistic expression, it is vital to maintain a balance between innovation and heritage; novelty cannot dominate tradition. To apply AI technology, respecting and upholding the principles that guide the culture's identity is necessary. | ||||
