For my series „Fictional Still Lifes” I experimented with AI to generate digital images of indefinable objects that seem completely detached from time and space, detached from our reality. Some of them look a little familiar but we cannot really specify and name them. To translate the images back into tangible objects, I printed them on Hahnemühle Baryta FB paper after upscaling and editing them. The project explores questions like "Is AI itself creative?" and "How should we respond to the fact that what AI does is not completely within our control?"
