Artist Statement

by

Anna Utopia Giordano

​

My AI practise in the arts is born from the interplay of language, image, philosophy and artificial intelligence—a continuous dialogue between word and vision, thought and form.

​

ἐκγραφῆς is a journey into this liminal space, where poetry transforms into images through a process I have named "ekgraphic." This term I coined, rooted in the ancient ékphrasis, subverts the traditional flow by reversing it—from word to image, rather than the other way around.

​

The first cycle of ἐκγραφῆς, derived from one of my poetic texts, premiered at the Fuori Visioni Festival in 2022. Since then, I have continued to actively evolve and expand the project, shaping its growth in new directions with each iteration.
