MÉTAMORPHOSES
METAMORPHOSES | A JOURNEY INTO DIGITAL ART
Métamorphoses is an exhibition created with the AI robot Midjourney.
The intention of this exhibition is very simple : I proposed to the bot to interpret my own Second Life artworks.
THE APPROACH | A CREATIVE DIALOGUE WITH AN AI
In a dialogue with the Midjourney bot on Discord, I injected into its «imagination» the images I created in SL, and the bot proposed its own inspirations. Then, according to its answers, I adjusted instinctively by asking it for new variants or by giving new parameters. The feeling of “happy awkwardness” that always marks a creative process was multiplied here.
MIDJOURNEY | A DEEP DREAMING MIRROR
So this is my first collective exhibition with a deep dreamer. The result is a metamorphosis of my creations in SL. A change of state. A flight into a more complex world. The startling revelation of hidden meanings and emotions behind my own work
I realized, through this experience that Midjourney is neither an artist nor a machine. It is a mirror.
METAWRITING | METACREATION
This is only the beginning of the journey, the first awkward steps of a newborn baby. If the climate drifts and the wars we are all collectively responsible for do not cut it short, it seems to me that what is happening here is as important as the invention of language and writing, which allowed the appearance of multiple art forms.
It is a meta-writing, a meta-creation, with huge consequences on the world of art which nobody can measure yet.
The exhibition includes 24 images inspired by 12 images from my previous exhibitions, as well as unpublished work. It is displayed on 2 floors : the "forest hall" and a new hall, called the "underearth hall"
