face-to-face-ControlNet
multi-media installation, 2023In this data-driven initiative where ‘correctness’ is the sole objective, a deceptive capability has emerged. Using the Stable Diffusion ControlNet workflow, groups of women are generated based on the same facial contours of an Asian woman, each striving to display her smile in everyday scenarios. This project begins with an exploration of the multiple meanings of recognizing a face from both technical and cultural perspectives, hinting at an industrialized mechanism operating between aesthetics, technology, and reality: here, there are no individuals, only shapes.
