This meditative piece is a montage of several GANs created with famous sculptures and statues of historical characters that have influenced me as an artist. The reinterpretation of the images plays with the idea of reviving these characters and male their aesthetics more live-like.
I’ve been fascinated by Greek mythology its statues for a long time. Myths shows us something that is true to human nature. The stories of Psyche and Eros, The Minotaur and the labyrinth show us a deep understanding of the human psyche. And even though Venus, Zeus and Athena are considered as gods, they still embody certain archetypal ideas ideals of the human. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This small project is intended to connect with the old. Just as Galatea came to life, I’m trying to bring old marble to life. Let’s take into account that I did not want to portray a plausible representation of the forms of the statues into a realistic volume but just show the interpretation of the images of the statue by the deep learning algorithm. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀
May art keep being the messenger between the known and the unkown.
