Force of Nature, mixed media piece made by local artist Gretchen Leachman.
Dimensions: 22” x 23”
Made using discarded computer hardware
Force of Nature is a visual commentary on AI and its place (or lack thereof) in the art world. What initially appears to be a nature scene is, on closer inspection, just a bit ... off. Recycled tech mingles with distorted classic literature, found objects and traditional art techniques. Mostly contained - it's beginning to creep beyond its original boundaries, much like the technology itself. Is AI creating art? Or consuming it?
