This is an Flux LORA trained on the intangible concept of romanian traditional masks.
"Traditional Romanian masks, often made from animal fur, bone, and fabric, are used in pre-Christian folk customs like winter rituals and seasonal dances. Masks are associated with specific characters and traditions and are also used for different life events and rituals like weddings or harvests."

FolkLORA is a project to revitalize intangible heritage in the digital and AI era.
We address a practical need: today, generative artificial intelligence distorts cultural elements it hasn’t been specifically trained on. This doesn’t stop content creators from using it, and the result is cultural erosion, amplified by successively mutating transcriptions of heritage.
The solution can’t be containment, but rather a helping hand in the right direction. In collaboration with ethnographers and cultural institutions in Romania, we have developed a library of specialized AI extensions (LoRA).
Each model is trained on a specific dataset—such as Horezu ceramics, Oltenian cule (fortified manor houses), or traditional masks—allowing the AI to generate images with a high degree of visual and cultural accuracy.
These tools are open source and available to artists, designers, and researchers, providing a solid foundation for creative projects that make responsible use of cultural heritage.
