Description
Step into the world of Electric Dreams, where art and technology collide to explore the relationship between humanity and machines, as well as between dreams and reality.
My journey began with a single lucid dream and my quest to recreate it. In the search for answers, I pondered the existence of the ethereal figures that inhabit dreamscapes. Are they people we know and love? Are they people we dislike? Or even individuals who have briefly passed us in an encounter, subconsciously absorbed into our minds without reflection. Do they exist at all, or are they mere figments of our imagination?
My creative journey took an exciting turn when I introduced Artificial Intelligence (AI) to breathe life into these enigmatic dream characters. These AI-generated models exist in a realm where reality and imagination entwine. Much like the boundaries of a lucid dream, AI is a mishmash of digital imagination, blending what the machine perceives and hallucinates into something vivid. The result is a collection of artworks that embody Electric Dreams – where art meets technology, and reality blurs into fantasy.
