Instrumentality

Generative art is used as a means of exploring noise as means of image generation, this is representative of the process of thinking. These visuals are juxtaposed by the organic and expressive presentation of the generic human figure. This combination of visuals is emphasises the nature of philosophy and contemplation as experienced by the artist. Contrasting means of presenting a similar concept which have been juxtaposed against one another.

While simultaneously acting as a means of investigation into the realms of identity, the self, gender, nature, authorship, and mythology. The serial nature of these works acts to bring about the artists own “self-mythology”

This mythos of sorts, acts then as a pseudo-Rorschach test, it is an inquisition unto the self or selves. The physical body versus the mental ego. This is the rationale that the work builds its foundation upon, wanting to emphasise these questions rather than answer them directly.
