THE ENCOUNTER WITH THE INCOMPREHENSIBLE

“THE ENCOUNTER WITH THE INCOMPREHENSIBLE
It's often said that if something could be easily explained, there would be no need to paint it. Indeed, my art emerges where words fail, and I prefer not to dilute the experience with too many explanations, preferring to let the work speak for itself.
This work was created using a technique i call "neural collage," where generative AI is harnessed to produce samples for the collage, which I then assemble to form a coherent idea and composition. The process includes a combination of traditional digital techniques and neural interventions. The generative model itself was trained on my own drawings and sculptures, ensuring a continuity of my artistic essence in this new medium.
The generative model itself was trained on my own drawings and sculptures, which I believe is quite ethical.
The concept arose from pondering how to illustrate the indescribable—does a prompt exist for the ineffable? No matter what, some aspect will be described. I approached this challenge by creating a piece so rich in detail that it becomes difficult to encapsulate, hence the large scale and "maximalist render" of the artwork.
There's more I could say, but it's better to just look and experience the piece yourself.
