The Artist: dubhz0
Dubhz0 is a crypto artist who pinches the invisible thread between photography and AI. The underpass may have been a reality somewhere in our minds, and the sweeping lines of the overpass, the dotted white lines of the underpass and the water damaged patina of the concrete barrier down the middle suggests anything but artificial. We are discovering a mid 20th century minimalism through dubhz0 that is an emphatic response to an over expressionistic version of AI prompted madness.
"If AI was inventing all these hypothetical things that were to happen. Then if you can invent the future... you can invent the past. The real intelligence of AI is not being able to believe its real. Its the unrecognised nature of what this tech is doing. This is a commentary about subtlety. When AI is in the unrecognised zone is where it becomes interesting."
The Collection: "Liminal Emptiness"
Liminal Emptiness is a compelling collection that delves into the concept of liminality—the transitional spaces that exist between defined states—by presenting scenes that feel both familiar and otherworldly. The late day shadows of the sun in Liminal Emptiness #16 would feel right at home in the 12 photographs of Scar Tissue yet here we are in the artifical depths of latent space hardly able to believe what are eyes are not telling us.
A Specific Artwork: "Liminal Emptiness #17"
A standout piece in the Liminal Emptiness collection, Liminal Emptiness #17 features an underpass with sweeping lines and a water-damaged concrete barrier, evoking a mid-20th-century minimalist aesthetic. The image challenges viewers to discern the real from the artificial, highlighting the unrecognized nature of AI’s capabilities. This artwork exemplifies dubhz0’s exploration of AI’s role in art, emphasizing subtle truths instead of overt lies.
