From Red Bud Arts Center:
“I Told Her Everything – A Lot of Fakes” explores the shifting nature of truth and authorship in the age of artificial intelligence. As machine-generated images blur the boundaries between the authentic and the artificial, the exhibition questions how we perceive, trust, and interpret visual narratives. The works combine laser engravings on paper with silkscreen prints, bringing together digital precision and analog imperfection. This tension becomes a metaphor for the interplay between control and chance, between algorithm and human gesture. Rather than offering answers, the exhibition invites viewers into a space of ambiguity—a place where fiction and reality intertwine, and where the origin of an image becomes less important than the story it suggests.
KÜNSTLERSTATEMENT
“I Told Her Everything – A Lot of Fakes” untersucht die wandelbare Natur von Wahrheit und Autorschaft im Zeitalter künstlicher Intelligenz. Während maschinell erzeugte Bilder die Grenzen zwischen Echtem und Künstlichem zunehmend verwischen, stellt die Ausstellung Fragen danach, wie wir visuelle Narrative wahrnehmen, ihnen vertrauen – und sie deuten. Die Arbeiten verbinden Lasergravuren auf Papier mit Siebdrucken und vereinen so digitale Präzision mit analoger Unschärfe. Diese Spannung wird zum Sinnbild für das Wechselspiel zwischen Kontrolle und Zufall, zwischen Algorithmus und menschlicher Geste. Anstatt eindeutige Antworten zu geben, öffnet die Ausstellung einen Raum der Mehrdeutigkeit – einen Ort, an dem sich Fiktion und Realität überlagern und die Herkunft eines Bildes zweitrangig gegenüber der Geschichte wird, die es erzählt.
