Synopsis
A sensory collage of childhood impressions from Madagascar mixed with present-day sensations. Fleeting moments quietly echo within. This work treats experience as a shifting terrain — shaped by time and place. Early feelings held back, moments marked by silence rather than words, run as an undercurrent throughout this piece. AI helps explore this instability by navigating the vast latent space — a map of possible images reflecting how emotions shift and carry what remains unsaid. The images, inspired by old Malagasy childhood illustrations, are familiar yet transformed and rediscovered through AI-generated visuals that retain a handmade, organic feel. The process weaves digital collage and layered visuals back and forth, blending human presence with machine interpretation.
