AI EXPRESSIONISM: A Quiet Afternoon Reading

This collection embraces the anomaly in AI creation as a valuable characteristic of expression with which to explore and give voice to the human condition with. We often strive for perfection, in ourselves and in our art, but there is so much to love in imperfection and strangeness. As we race to hyper-realism with AI and imagine the future I take a pause to explore another road, one that embraces the uniquely expressive voice of AI and our humanness of past and present.

When creating with AI I saw unintentional moments of great expressiveness that parallels the expressive stylisation and abstractions of artists like Henri Matisse and Francis Bacon. I see this distortions of reality as a masterstroke that in ways beautifully resembles humanity in all its idiosyncrasy, capacity for emotion, unique character and inherent humour.

While we can train and edit AI to the kind of perfection in art that we tend to desire from ourselves this collection embraces AI for its wildly cheeky and creative vision of who we are and in doing so, embraces imperfection in oneself and others. Through the collaboration of human and AI in creation where we see ourselves through a different lens we can potentially glimpse who we are in far greater reality and honesty and come to love what we see.
