The “Latent Forms” series is a pioneering venture into the vast, uncharted expanse of artificial intelligence’s latent space—an infinite realm of potential forms and compositions. These images represent synthetic photographs, created through a novel fusion of photography and AI, where each sculpture is meticulously crafted without ever existing in the physical world. Duncan Rawlinson has navigated this digital ocean, harnessing its boundless possibilities to shape light, shadow, and form into artworks that challenge our perceptions of reality. This collection stands as a celebration of the unseen depths of AI’s creative potential, a showcase of how art can emerge from the complexity of algorithms and virtual environments.

The “Infernal Melt” series is the outcome of Duncan Rawlinson’s foray into blending traditional photography with the burgeoning realm of artificial intelligence. Each piece in the collection is the result of thoughtful experimentation, where the interplay of light and shadow is rendered on various surfaces, suggesting the interaction of fire with more elusive and undefined materials. The images, while vivid and intense, are an attempt to probe the boundaries between the physical world and the digital frontier, reflecting a journey that is as much about the process as it is about the final visual experience. This body of work stands as an exploration, an invitation to ponder the ever-evolving relationship between human creativity and machine learning.

This photograph, created by Duncan Rawlinson, is a visual exploration of the space at the edge of discovery, where AI’s potential is rendered in a spectral display of light and color. The setting is an industrial expanse, where the rawness of the environment is juxtaposed with the fluidity of digital enhancements. Human figures, cast in shadow, navigate this transformative realm, their presence a grounding force in the midst of AI’s expansive potential. The palette is alive with dynamic hues, a spectrum of color that seems to be in constant flux, echoing the ever-changing nature of technology. Reflective surfaces capture and multiply the scene, creating layers of depth that draw the eye deeper into the photograph. Rawlinson’s work is a visual threshold, inviting the observer to step into a world where the lines between the real and the artificially rendered are beautifully blurred.
