Artificial Eye

$475.00

This artwork, titled “Artificial Eye,” is a square acrylic painting on stretched canvas measuring 40 cm x 40 cm. The dominant subject matter is a large human eyeball at the center of the composition. The eyeball is surrounded by a black border and further encased in a red film. Underneath the red film, indistinct shapes can be perceived. Within the reflection of light from the eyeball’s pupil, a dove can be seen, while a neuralink terminal is depicted plugged into the side of the eyeball. The visual elements of the artwork primarily revolve around the square format and the prominent presence of the human eyeball as the focal point. The artist has also created a video associated with the artwork, which showcases its construction process. The video features an initial portrayal of a bizarre-looking man with beady yellow eyes, symbolizing the potential ominous side of artificial intelligence. Following this, a regular pattern of similar beady yellow eyes is placed throughout the piece to represent the pattern recognition functionality of large language models. Lastly, the large central human eyeball, symbolizing humanity, is introduced, with a small dove reflected within it representing the human spirit or divinity. Additionally, a small black box representing a neuralink terminal suggests the potential future integration of AI with humans. The artist’s intention behind this artwork is to explore the concepts of intelligence and what it means to be human. By presenting the dichotomy between artificial intelligence and human beings, the painting raises questions about the unique aspects that define humanity. The presence of the dove within the human eyeball emphasizes the belief that the human spirit or the divine separates us from artificial intelligence. However, the inclusion of the neuralink terminal alludes to a future where humans may potentially integrate with AI, blurring the boundaries between the two. Ultimately, the artwork prompts viewers to ponder the nature of intelligence and the potential integration of humans and artificial intelligence.
