For this series of works, i amass a large collection of landscape paintings from the WikiArt archive to train my AI on. The outputs created capture a dream like imagination of landscapes - there's an immediate sense of recognition, but the physics and compositions of the landscapes deviate from the obvious, drawing one’s attention in. To highlight this uncanniness, i take these static outputs from the machine and animate the landscapes, adding subtle, realistic motion to these non-standard compositions, to push this blurring between digitally imagined and natural realities. These AI imagined and animated works of the otherwise traditional art theme of landscapes, speak of our ongoing transition into digitally native beings, where we imagine digital alternate realities of everyday existence and then bring them to life.
