Jewellery needs soul, says Fabian Laffitte, but how can one search for the quality of being enlivened by soulfulness in images generated using artificial intelligence? Fabian has attempted to do so, reveals his processes and shows his findings as a curated staging of 2 ½-dimensional reliefs. Its not jewellery, he says, but he sees potential in it. However, his mistrust vis-à-vis the randomness, the banality and emptiness of the tool predominates. Minus artistic intention, AI simply offers an infinite number of surfaces, he says, which tend more to distract that help in the search for a soul and essence.
