Medium: Screens, Retro toys (plastic), Electronic components

I utilized NFT image generation techniques to deconstruct and recombine AI facial features, producing 5,000 unique Uncanny Valley face photos. These images were intentionally designed to resemble ID card photos, each labeled with random letters and numbers to simulate names.

The exhibition in Copeland Gallery involves 200 fake ID cards branded as UAL's UVL (Uncanny Valley London), distributed among students and employees. This installation aims to critique and satirize the blurring of human self-identity in the AI era and the pervasive infiltration of AI into the real world. Through this work, I highlight the complexities and ambiguities of identity in our increasingly AI-dominated society.

In the final graduation exhibition -----CONTROL: Uncanny Valley Show is the third stage of the UVL series of works., I work with JOJO from CCI to restore the role of an interviewer in the UVL world in the real exhibition. It will interact with the audience as a humanoid interactive art installation, further improving my UVL worldview concept. I use the concept of a toy house to express my views on AI, and the audience can interact with it and make their own choices.
