This artwork is a composition of a digital painting and a complementary text, both printed on separate wood panels. Each has an embedded QR code for accessing different digital experiences of each piece.
Panel 1: The Allegorical Text.
This panel presents an evocative allegory titled "The Allegory of the Ice Woman," crafted with the assistance of artificial intelligence. This tale, written in a biblical style, is a powerful reflection on global warming and human responsibility. Scanning the QR code on this panel allows viewers to access text translations in three different languages via augmented reality.
Panel 2: The Digital Painting.
Inspired by the allegorical text, the artist created a digital painting printed on wood, depicting "The Ice Woman," a figure sculpted in virtual reality. This visual representation captures the essence of the narrative, portraying the Ice Woman in a serene yet evocative stance, shining with crystalline brilliance. By scanning the embedded QR code, viewers can explore the painting as a 3D digital sculpture through augmented reality, revealing the intricate details and layers of the artwork.
The project not only showcases the creative potential of AI in generating artistic concepts but also emphasizes the indispensable role of human oversight in art.
