Reflection:
Exploring AI has been something that piqued my interest since its becoming very much integrated into our society today. I had a lot of fun trying different prompts to generate a selfie that reflects my journey, background and accomplishments.
For this assignment, I used Leonardo.ai to generate a selfie of an African woman who just became a Canadian citizen. This selfie depicts A radiant African woman, beaming with pride, as she holds the vibrant red and white Canadian flag in her right hand, her left hand gently grasping the edge of the flag, as she takes a selfie against a colorful and intricate African art background adorned with tribal patterns and motifs. She wears a stunning traditional Northern Nigerian attire, complete with a bright yellow and blue Ankara print gele (head scarf), a matching long-sleeved dress with embroidered sleeves, and a statement silver necklace with a small pendant. Her dark brown skin glistens with a subtle sheen, and her bright, warm smile showcases her pearly white teeth, her dark brown irises sparkling with pride. Her eyes shine with a mix of happiness and accomplishment. The Canadian flag's bold red and white hues pop against the rich, earthy tones of the African artwork, creating a beautiful fusion of cultures. The overall mood is one of joy, celebration, and new beginnings.
For my prompts, I had to use key words like “African”, “Woman”, “African Art”, “Northern Nigerian attire”, “Canadian Flag” to be able to achieve this result.
This AI generated selfie aligns with my personal journey as an immigrant to Canada. I came to Canada in 2012 as an international student from Nigeria and I became a Canadian citizen in June of 2024. I am from Northern Nigeria, so the image is a reflection of me in every way, from the background art to the attire worn. I am proud to infuse my culture with my new home and country.
