Featured artwork: Equivalences II

Created in 1992 / 2025.

Realized thirty years prior to current text prompt generative software. This work is an early experiment in text-to-image generation designed to explore how language could shape visual form. The custom software asked exhibition viewers to type in a text that then produced an abstract, cloud-like image.
