“You're telling me a shrimp shot this 3-pointer?” and “I just want to be part of your symphony”

I created these pieces to comment on the social intricacies of virtual galleries, the dissonance between AI and artists’ labour, and how much funnier these images can be when the audience knows that hours of work were put into it. 

I scrolled through the Roblox game gallery and found a game called ‘Draw and Donate’. In the game, you draw in an open gallery space alongside other people. I was inspired by some of the funnier artworks displayed on the walls, so I grabbed my phone and threw together some badly AI generated images from Pinterest, eventually landing on this specific shrimpy subject. I chose to replicate AI generated images because I wanted a translation of the human spirit to crack through the endless multitudes of soulless images online in the most ridiculous way possible.
