About Fantasy Crush

Fantasy Crush is where AI meets pop culture, beauty, and fantasy.

A project from the Appropriate Art collective, Fantasy Crush was inspired by
Andy Warhol’s bold reinterpretations of icons like Marilyn Monroe. Just as Warhol transformed celebrity
culture into pop art, we use today’s AI tools to reimagine modern fame, beauty, and desire in
provocative, playful ways.

Our debut project, “Appropriate Art: Subverting Expectations About Beauty, Identity, and Fantasy,” takes
form through the
fantasycrush.ai website. A community fan site, Fantasy Crush evokes
the spirit of Warhol’s Marilyn Diptych — portraying celebrities and public figures, both living and
deceased, through the lens of AI creativity.

Think of Fantasy Crush as a digital dream studio — a modern spin on the pinup tradition. Where once you
might have tacked posters to a wall, now your idealized fantasy portraits live on your phone or desktop
as a private celebration of beauty and allure.
