WATERxRIVAL
WATERxRIVAL is the confluence of my current investigations
(collaboration with a deep learning AI trained on my artwork and image
archive, named RIVAL) and a previous investigation (speculative web-page
about water evaporation as a 4th-dimensional phenomenon). This
convergence becomes an exploration more ecological in scope and
perspective.
RIVAL's algorithmic flows/processes are let out into the open waters of
internet image & keyword searches, returning with specimens and
samples for me to compose and cultivate meaning(fulness) with. The
initial set of images (from the speculative exploration of water and
space) are put into relationship with the ocean of media flooding all
around us. In this way, highly subjective material trespasses into
broader cultural discourses.
The WATERxRIVAL webpage provides an opportunity for the viewer to
glimpse the deluge (this process produces); additionally, it will
expand and swell weekly throughout the exhibition's duration.
