‘The Love Interest’ is part of a hyper realistic graphite and ink portrait series ‘Periferal’, depicting invented, impossible people. ‘Periferal’ is a world building exercise, with realistic, fluid linework giving tangible form to immaterial digital sources - reference images of fake people generated by AIs, and ‘personal’ biographies generated by a code. By assigning concrete, corporeal identity to the immaterial, the work explores fabricated realities and the illusion of consciousness.
