Promptography: is a new form of image-making where photographs are created through written descriptions rather than cameras. In promptography, language becomes the lens, and the prompt replaces the shutter. These images may look like photographs, but they document no physical moment. Instead, they visualize ideas, dreams, histories, and possibilities. The book traces a path from the early history of photography, through digital imaging and Photoshop, to the rise of AI-generated visuals. Along the way, it explores different genres of promptography-and introduces artists, exhibitions, and experiments that are defining this emerging field. In its final chapters, the book turns practical. Writing prompts is not about mastering formulas or commands, but about learning to think visually through language.
