Metal Bleu (n1-n2-n3) , 2024

Wood, oil pastels, AI, photography.




Created with the help of artificial intelligence and inspired by my adolescent memories, this armor symbolizes both protection and vulnerability, reflecting the complex emotions of that tumultuous period. It draws from various interpretations of my teenage room, a personal sanctuary filled with artifacts that reveal the emotional richness of those formative years. The armor, traditionally a symbol of strength, is crafted to appear fragile, emphasizing the delicate balance between resilience and vulnerability in youth. This contrast invites reflection on the protective mechanisms developed during adolescence and how they evolve over time. By blending personal memories with AI, the piece explores the interplay between the organic and digital, capturing the enduring impact of adolescent experiences and the fluidity of memory.
