Artificial Intelligence has succeeded at (sometimes) perfectly imitating photography and reality so now is the time to reflect on what direction should those two mediums go forward, in the era of post-photography.
This show focuses on artists engaging with themes that go beyond traditional representation. The use of advanced tools such as AI means that the photographer is no longer bounded by what they experience and observe in their closest environment. Artists capture subjects with their language, in ways not dissimilar from traditional photography - either by discovering a scene or by it setting up to correspond with the vision. AI in this context allows for greater flexibility and experimentation in the photographic process, allowing the photographers to push the boundaries of what can be achieved with the medium.
