artificial archeology
A series composed of diptychs structured like bo oks. The left-hand canvas depicts the document found containing the biography of the Roman mo narch, who is represented on the canvas opposite. These documents are presented as if they were stories taken from the books of Plutarch, Eutropius and Titus Livius, but in reality they have been created using artificial intelligence whi ch, through a brief description of the subject, has produced a summary biography of the lives of these mysterious figures. This cycle of works aims to analyse, over time, the evolution of certain tools that are spreading throughout the world and are increasingly part of our daily lives. Stories are created and, as a result, new works are pro duced. As they progress, the narratives become incre asingly complex and detailed, advancing hand in hand with artificial intelligence, in the hope that they will be come increasingly realistic and credible to the public. These stories create two different narratives based on the viewers’ knowledge and tools: those unfamiliar with the subject matter will tend to take the writings as truthful, while knowledgeable viewers will be able to see through the deception and understand that they are looking at genuine fake news.
