North-East 42degreesDeconstructing the Human Form: Through distorted proportions and strange juxtapositions, the work explores how AI attempts to understand and represent humanity, revealing a visual dialogue between a learning intelligence and its subject.
Challenging Visual Logic: The work deliberately bends and breaks traditional rules of physics and perspective, offering a glimpse into a reality where human-centric logic is no longer the dominant framework for visual communication.
Visualizing an Alien Perspective: Abstract concepts such as "Alien Bio Physics" are translated into tangible visuals, creating collages that defy conventional logic to explore how an AGI might perceive a world with different physical laws.
