Silver Medal
This series lingers where images become sensations—where landscapes are less about place and more about presence. Blurred and dissolving at the edges, these works suggest rather than depict, inviting emotion in the absence of clarity.
Created with generative AI and reshaped digitally, 109.licm sits at the edge of recognition, where shadow and light shift like fleeting impressions. Soft contours and obscured details convey motion and evoke an intuitive, visceral response. No fixed meaning emerges—only atmosphere and pull.
Yet within this ambiguity lies a strange familiarity. These landscapes feel like echoes of places we’ve known—not literally, but as nostalgia works: longing for something just beyond memory. They stir recognition without certainty, reflecting how we shape myths of place from fragmented experience.
109.licm also questions that familiarity. If these scenes are algorithmically generated, what’s being remembered—and by whom? My work with synthography explores how images construct meaning, deceive, and still feel true—fluid and fallible, like memory itself.
