Final Review | 2.3.23


The project, "Lost Purpose" provides insight to the potential harmful future of artificial intelligence and how it could diminish the human nature to be creative and do new things. I was led to creating this artwork after researching artificial intelligence and finding examples of people using artificial intelligence to create new art and other creative ideas. Seeing this made me believe that, while it can be useful to help create ideas, people are using it to completely finish creating new works and ideas which is potentially harmful to our creative nature. 


Lost Purpose utilizes an impressionist style painting to represent that, even while there is a message behind the piece, there is still room for viewers to use creativity and visualize the art in their own way. The piece aims to target the younger audience, with the message to create art in a physical sense with your own brain and hands; imagine and create. The viewer is meant to see the artwork and have their own connection to it with their own meaning, inspiring people to create and visualize their own ideas.
