Voices is an image journey realized with artificial intelligence.
People of different ethnicities - in different spatial situations - are confronted with themselves, in a moment of loneliness or at least being alone.
Confronted with the voices of memory, of the past, of conscience...

In the first part of the prompted picture journey, I chose women in hotel rooms.
Without any further explanatory context. Each one for themselves, in their moment with their picture alone.
We are not at home in hotels, we are strangers there and hopefully it is pleasant, but sometimes it is not...
Images which are generated using artificial intelligence - at least that's how I perceive it - could also create transcendent moments.
The raw material underlying this type of image creation is, if it's like to say, the past of the world.
So in a way it is a kind of communication with the beyond of our common world
of images and shared memories.
Or at least the part that has been and is fed into the respective generating programs.

From, so to speak, crushed, fragmented and reduced to the format of individual pixels
“Memories” become new simulated connections. Simulated new events, situations and realities.
As with almost no other art form, we are called upon to create a new one together
and to define reality comparison.
Such simulated images of new freedoms and captivity, are confrontating us in their form of art, or at least with this new tool to work with artfully, with questions about conscience and responsibility.

What is fascinating to me is the imperfections in the images generated.
The mirage-like absurdities of the simulated realities, which preserve a piece of “truth” in the bizarre disappointment.
A “truth” that does not allow us to believe the picture, what is shown. A provoke of
mistrust with the traditional desire for correction towards what is right or ideal.

In moments of peace with ourselves, we should listen to the voices that tell us what is or was right and wrong in our world.To listen for the voices that warn and remind us.
But because we are not alone, in a new, changing world we will also listen to the voices that seduce us and give us promises and hopes...

Artificial intelligence is a tool for new independent art forms.
In a certain way, the photographic image has replaced and enriched its artistic predecessors in the past. This is also the case with photography itself.
Going through the transformation of digitalization, the photographic image now begins to become an independent image.
Still emerging from the voices of the past...
