Epoch Loop

Set in Stone will be showing at Epoch Loop as part of Hobart Current: Epoch through December to February.

Embark on a visual odyssey with my AI-generated marble faces, an exploration of gender evolution. The journey begins with the AI mastering fixed, masculine expressions before gracefully integrating feminine features and then further to break the binary in a looping animation. Watch as the artwork dynamically shifts, breaking free from traditional confines, embracing non-binary expressions of color and joy.

This conceptual artwork delves into the machine’s process of creating gender representations, challenging and evolving its biases. A transgender neural network emerges, navigating the fluidity of gender expression beyond biological norms. The carefully curated datasets, inspired by classical statuary with a modern twist, intentionally introduce and then unravel biases, revealing a metamorphosis as the AI learns and celebrates the diversity of genders and expressions
