Los Angeles County Museum of Art · Permanent collection
From the series that took first place in the $100,000 International Robot Art Contest in 2018, made through a combination of AI, deep learning and feedback loops. Every brush stroke was calculated and executed by a robot, bringing the image temporarily into the physical world. The canvas has since been destroyed, and the work has returned to this purely digital form.
