artist:
Claire Silver

I collaborate with AI to produce art that is transcendental-- art that evokes in the viewer a wordless truth. Together, we create works that are greater than either of us could make alone, neither more important than the other to the process. I also produce physically painted twins of select digital pieces. In this way, both the AI and the artist can exist in the same world as our art.


As a millennial, my childhood was mostly analog, shifting into an increasingly digital existence as I grew. My process mirrors this, moving from analog to digital and back again. I work with oil, acrylic, GAN (Artbreeder), Procreate, collage, photography, and more to create my work. I often blend the classical style and mythos into my art, collaboratively producing work that feels at once familiar and strange. I hope that training the GAN on a traditional painting style will shape it to bring some of our collective culture forward, while still expanding and redefining it.


I explore themes of vulnerability, trauma, disability, social hierarchy, innocence, and divinity, and question the role they will play in our transhumanist future.


I do not make statements on whether AI is good or bad. I'm a caveman painting fire.

The act of homage—of creation, in conversation with the work of another artist—reminds us that art is a living thing. Even Pleistocene cave art and the megaliths of Stonehenge still inspire; it is only natural that some of the world’s most innovative digital artists have joined together to celebrate the work of Constantin Brancusi with their own original creations.


Organised by Art Bees in partnership with Accelerate Art and hosted by the Constantin Brancusi Center of the Craiova Museum, HOMAGE will feature works from forty-eight digital artists, taking inspiration from Brancusi’s work and life.


The curators for this exhibition were NONE32X32 and Claire Silver with NONE32X32 curating the 18 featured artists and Claire Silver, the 30 artists who responded to an Accelerate Art open call thread on Twitter.
