IGNORANTIA
AI generated conversation with the medieval area in the language of Hieronymus Bosch.
A project by Nirodha Collective for Gallery ARTECONT.
Mankind faces numerous challenges from climate change to mass extinction, from wealth gap to inflation, from hedonism to nationalism, from religion to ideologies, from disruptive technologies to modern warfare, from Anthropocene to Pyrocene.
In this project Nirodha Collective investigates contemporary and mythological narratives regarding religion, ideology and our interpretation of reality with the use of AI programs that create images from linguistic input, and Metaverse interactions. A linguistic-visual exploration of contemporary and historic narratives.
IGNORANTIA examines traditional and contemporary storytelling about sin, fear, guilt, war and our interdependence with nature. Theistic historic narratives that stretch into our present time and their contemporary counterparts are represented through the highly saturated imaginary language of Hieronymus Bosch.
