We are Women - We are Men - let's start again

< BACK 

In an era where physical and digital dimensions increasingly coexist, We are Women – We are Men – Let’s Start Again emerges as a hybrid experience of human reflection and machine consciousness. This diptych—two canvases, each 50x50 cm—embodies a minimalist aesthetic that conceals a profound conceptual dialogue on gender, identity, and reconciliation.

The left panel presents a red organic form against a pure white background. The simplicity evokes the essence of femininity—menstruation, fertility, vulnerability, power. The right panel mirrors it with a cream-white form floating on a dense black background, evoking the masculine—the seed, the enigma, the presence. These abstract traces, reminiscent of drops or paths, suggest movement across time and culture. The title, Let’s Start Again, calls for a collective reset, a rethinking of rigid roles and opposing binaries.

But what makes this artwork radically contemporary is not only its symbolic power—it is its voice.

Integrated within the physical work is a generative AI system that allows the artwork to speak, listen, and evolve. Visitors are not mere viewers—they become participants in a dialogue. By pronouncing the title or asking questions aloud, the artwork activates: it responds with poetic, philosophical, or emotional reflections that are shaped both by the artist’s original vision and the input of all previous visitors. Every interaction leaves a trace. Every question builds a memory. The canvas, though still, becomes a living presence.

This is the future of human-art interaction: where the painting no longer ends when the brush lifts, but begins again with every voice that engages it. The AI does not explain—it contemplates, it challenges, it remembers. It invites the audience into a shared authorship of meaning.

We are Women – We are Men – Let’s Start Again is not just a painting. It is a being—minimal in form, infinite in response. A post-digital relic of tomorrow’s art experience, where boundaries between material and immaterial, creator and observer, human and machine, are no longer opposites, but intertwined paths on the same canvas.
