The Unnecessarily Sincere Pollock
Random inspiration: unnecessarily sincere pollock
AI-generated painting and story
The story
The pollock had arrived three days prior, delivered by mistake in a crate labeled 'fragile: art supplies.' The janitor, noting its unwavering gaze and lack of struggle, began leaving it small offerings: a breadcrumb, a drop of soy sauce, once a folded note that read 'I see you.' No one else noticed. The pollock never moved. It was, after all, being sincere.
The brief
A single pollock floats belly-up in a shallow ceramic sink, its gills flared in solemn stillness under the harsh glare of a bare overhead bulb, surrounded by faded tiles and a half-used bar of soap.
The painting and the story were written from this same scene, so the two describe one moment.
