Art After Work: AI Slop IRL
After visiting the exhibition, you’ll become the AI yourself, with Fimo clay in hand. Drawing on the collective wisdom of the group, an absurd prompt will emerge—a brief description of an image, just like one generated by an AI program. Using this, you’ll create a unique, analog Fimo sculpture to take home.
The workshop is suitable for both individual visitors and small groups. No art skills are required.

Notes
Limited number of participants
AI technologies are fundamentally transforming the way images are created, edited, distributed, described, and viewed. Their influence on visual culture is dominated by opaque technical processes, which are actually rooted in analog operations carried out by people at the expensce of the environment. The interplay between the technological and physical toll of AI on the world will be highlighted during the exhibition tour and the workshop. No prior artistic experience is required.
To sweeten the evening, non-alcoholic beverages and wine will be served.
