Faded Prosperity: This piece, inspired by a WSJ/NORC poll on the American Dream, visualizes the waning belief in the ideal of prosperity. Through the use of a largely desaturated palette, it communicates the melancholy of unfulfilled promise. The shrouded factories in the distance signify the relentless march of progress that has neglected rural livelihoods and fuelled disillusionment. The solitary figure underscores the resignation felt by many who view the American Dream as increasingly unattainable.
AI Prompt: In the style of bleak realism, convey the waning belief in the idea of success and prosperity. Visualize a sprawling expanse of barren rural plains under a grey, cloud-filled sky. At the center, portray a single, dilapidated, creaky house with worn-out paint, the only sign of life in this desolate sight. On the distant horizon, hint at several large factories spewing smoke, a symbol of unyielding industrial progress that has abandoned rural livelihoods. Spread around the house patches of depleted, barren farmland, suggesting past unsuccessful farming attempts. In the forefront, depict a man of Hispanic descent, dressed modestly and turned away from us, gazing at this desolate panorama with a dejected, defeated stance, expressing a deep sense of disillusionment and despair. The color scheme should be largely composed of numerous shades of grey, some faded blues and greens, and a touch of rusty brown, eliciting the feeling of something once filled with color and life, now faded and decayed. The only bold contrast should be a neon sign in the distant backdrop of the factories, hinting at a glimmering, elusive dream. Do not inscribe any text onto the image.
