Description
Turn an ordinary photo into a conceptual poster. The upper half remains a recognizable original image; the lower half does not restate the scene, but keeps only one subject and builds a new compositional collage with rectangles, circles, axes, and modular color blocks. The subject can be very small, off-center, or cropped. Geometry serves the meaning rather than decoration. Paper grain, halftone dots, and misregistration remain in the design area. Avoid stacked concepts, filled-in backgrounds, cyberpunk, smooth vectors, and plastic-looking 3D.

Imagexiaoxiaodong P108 Folk Cut
When the subject of a photo is highly recognizable but weakened by a complex background, excessive decoration, or ordinary filters, 108 reorganizes the information through new folk-art paper cutting: the real photo remains above, while the section below keeps only the subject, outline, pose, and narrative relationships, transforming them into flat paper-cut forms, a seal-like main visual, and printmaking texture. Best suited for Art posters, publication covers, or exhibition images that preserve the identity of a photo while adding cultural and handcrafted character. A preference for silhouettes, color blocks, engraved lines, positive and negative space, and paper grain over realistic illustration, smooth vectors, or 3D. Stable output in the same style across top-and-bottom, side-by-side, pure design, wallpaper, multiple aspect ratios, and catalog batch processing. What it solves for you Removes irrelevant backgrounds and duplicate objects so the subject is not overwhelmed by decoration. Extracts the 2–4 most distinctive colors from the photo to create vivid but restrained folk-art color blocks. Unifies the two-zone structure of every finished piece: a strict 50:50 split, with no added title bar, footer, or third band. Quick check: Is Panel 108 right for you? What you get: A complete poster with the real photo on top and a new folk-art paper-cut design below At-a-glance characteristics: A small-scale, seal-like subject; flat paper-cut color blocks; printmaking grain; and generous warm-white space How the original image is respected: Identity, structure, pose, lighting, and color are preserved; the lower section only simplifies and symbolically reconstructs them
Imagexiaoxiaodong P115 | Pastel Stamp Collage
When a photo needs to be redesigned as a poster, cover, social content, or exhibition image, common problems include tracing every object, overcrowding the frame, or applying overly sweet children’s collage templates—causing the relationships between subjects and the sense of breathing room to disappear. Panel 115 turns each photo into a separate 3:4 vertical poster: the original photo is preserved in full in the upper half, while the lower half reconstructs its most memorable themes, relationships, structural movement, emotions, and metaphors as a pastel, hand-drawn doodle-material collage illustration on a vintage paper texture. Small stamp-like subjects, generous intentional negative space, 2–4 vivid colors drawn from the source image, and minimal light typographic layout come together in a clever, airy reinterpretation. It addresses problems such as copying subjects object by object, blending the background and subject into an indistinct mass, filling the frame, realistic tracing, smooth vector styling, excessive decoration, a children’s-template feel, a 3D look, and a commercial-poster aesthetic.
ImageCollage P158 | xiaoxiaodong
Suitable for organizing personal photography, independent publishing, exhibition practice, and lifestyle visual creation. Even when the original composition is ordinary, the background is cluttered, or the subject is small, you can reestablish a focal point through reduction, reorganization, cropping, and changes in scale—instead of simply applying a filter to the photo. The lower half extracts only the most recognizable subjects, contours, structures, gestures, and narrative relationships from the photo, reconstructing them as a paper-based mixed-media collage painting / mixed-media collage on paper. Do not copy every object from the photo, retain all elements, or reproduce the original scene. Actively remove most irrelevant background elements and details, keeping only the structures, visual direction, and visual memory cues that best represent the original subjects. Reinterpret them through paper collage, hand-drawn linework, a small number of color blocks, fragments of printed text, and negative space, so the connection to the photo above is immediately recognizable.
