Artificial Intelligence "images" translated physically (oil on canvas). Details to come. In brief, the images on the left are produced by AI / ML under the prompt of "portrait." With data we have trained AI/ML that a portrait is a colonial white male. In the medium of the paintings, I reiterate this training, in hope of brining it to a new frame. I also question if these "images" can be described as such under our current definitions and understandings of the term especially within the context of NFTs.

Peaking in the 17th and 18th centuries, homosexuality (deemed ‘faggotry') was punishable by death in the British Empire and Colonial Americas where the pejorative term originated. Homosexuals could be burned at the stake, over ‘faggots’ or bundles of sticks. This, in reference to the bodies of gay men seen as nothing more than kindling or fire-starter.
