Works 19/, 2020: For the series "iPhone-series: after/d'après Stephen Shore, Merced River" I edited some of my favourite photos from analogue times with the iPhone. To do this, I used a simple AI image editing app available in the App Store and used it contrary to its intended purpose: instead of retouching individual parts of the image, I erased the entire image with finger gestures, depriving the algorithm of all reference points and forcing it to "invent" its own image content. These images are printed on fine art paper as inkjet prints, mounted and presented in analogue form.
