Inspired by Vincent van Gogh's The Potato Peeler (1885), The Last Worker imagines a distant future where automation has replaced almost all manual labor. One human continues the traditional act of preparing food by hand, even as machines perform the same task with perfect efficiency.
The work explores the tension between technological progress and human craftsmanship, asking what remains meaningful when machines can replace the act of making. I preserved the quiet, earthy atmosphere of Van Gogh's original while imagining its emotional afterlife in an automated world.
THE ORIGINAL: THE FINAL I MADE:
:nice post🔥
The contrast between perfect automation and one person choosing to work by hand is beautifully clear. A thoughtful future for the quiet dignity of the original.

Stepping Through Art History to CapCut World LA 🎨✨ → 📍Audrey Irmas Pavilion
For the "Unexpected Arrival" theme, I wanted to blur the boundary between classic human artistry and next-gen AI filmmaking. Instead of a standard commute to Los Angeles, the journey pulls me directly through living, breathing masterpieces—from the swirling skies of Van Gogh’s The Starry Night and the crashing barrels of Hokusai’s The Great Wave, all the way to the iconic trapezoidal facade and barrel-vaulted ceiling of the Audrey Irmas Pavilion for CapCut World LA.
How I built it:
AI Generation & Continuity: Built as a connected 9-scene sequence using Seedance 2.5 inside CapCut, maintaining character consistency and fluid motion across completely distinct artistic styles and eras.
Editing & Polish in CapCut: Stitched and paced the transitions so each painting seamlessly morphs into the next dimension, combining keyframe camera momentum, color matching, and immersive sound design to make the final arrival in LA hit with maximum impact.
Why I built it:
Every era of art had its own medium—from oil on canvas and woodblock prints to digital timelines. AI and CapCut are the new canvas. I built this piece to celebrate how creative technology lets us step inside our wildest visual ideas and bring them to life in seconds.
Brilliant concept Pedro! 🎨 Stepping through Art History for an "Unexpected Arrival" is genius - blurring classic human artistry with next-gen AI filmmaking is such a powerful angle. Love the creative take on the journey to Audrey Irmas Pavilion instead of a standard commute. Can't wait to see the full piece!

AI really changed how I work. I spent the last month learning how to use it to amplify my work, now I’m looking for projects where I can put that into practice at scale. Open for work!
A month learning to use AI to amplify your work before taking it to clients is the right sequence, Jacob. Putting it into practice at scale is where the real lessons show up. All the best finding the right projects.
