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.
