AI JUNGLE EXHIBITION


Author: Natasha Spivak, Co-author: Durer.ai
Location: Release Space, Tbilisi, Georgia

AI has arrived, and its presence is irreversible. For analogue artists, it is essential to navigate this largely uncharted territory. This project embarks on an unpredictable journey of co-authoring with artificial intelligence in two analogue media: gouache on paper and ceramic sculpture.

Why Jungle? Because new technologies are like jungle, they grow explosively. The goal of this artistic project is to explore them without getting lost.





The project consisted of several steps

1. Creating a neural model using Natasha’s own handdrawn images.

2. Making first AI generations.

3. Painting first pictures based on AI generations.

4. Making another model using these images.

5. Generating new pictures using the new model.

6. Using the best generations as sketches for painting new pictures and making ceramic sculptures. Welcome to Inception!





Promotion

The promotion was conducted via social media and the guerilla campaign in the city.


The QR code on the teasers led to a website with the answer to the question and an invitation to the exhibition.



Opening of the exhibition

A party with music and snacks was held to celebrate the opening of the exhibition. 

Apart from the presentation of the project itself, a fun raffle was planned. Each guest was suggested to choose a nickname, which was generated by Chat GPT with the prompt "Generate 100 nicknames for the guests of the exhibitions, whose name is AI Jungle". In the end, the randomly selected nicknames won small art souvenirs.



Exhibits

The artworks consisted of three parts: printed AI generation, physical artwork (gouache painting and ceramic figure), and th soundtrack, which was generated by Mubert AI using the physical artworks.
