Using AI for image making | Artist workshop with Kate Robertson

10 February 2024

Saturday 10 February

1 pm–4 pm

Wheelers Hill Library Meeting Room

Explore the possibilities of artificial intelligence for generating imagery. In this workshop participants will use AI image generators as a tool for image-making, through text entered as prompts into AI software. You will take the resulting images to make an acetate negative, which in turn will be used to create a physical image in the form of a cyanotype.

Participants will be invited to reflect on the possibilities and properties of camera-less processes that actively shift between digital and analogue image-making, and to consider the social and ethical implications of creating images with AI.

About Kate Robertson...

Kate Robertson uses experimental analogue and digital photographic techniques to explore unseen yet felt phenomena relating to healing and connectedness within environmental community contexts. Her current practice is informed by an interest in how conceiving the photographic medium as a living and feeling entity, rather than a descriptive mechanism, might reveal more embodied visual outcomes, and in the social and environmental ethical impacts of creating and disseminating images.

Robertson has exhibited in Australia, Papua New Guinea, America, the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, China and New Zealand. Her work is held in numerous collections, including the Art Gallery of New South Wales (AUS), Southeast Museum of Photography (USA) and Center for Creative Photography (USA).

MAPh acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong People, and recognises their continuing connection to the land and waterways.

We pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging and extend this to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People.
