i felt compelled to make a response to the new madness that is the current UK government.
i've generated a quiet, luxury space for reflection, development, aspiration, progress, investment, cruelty, lifestyle, quality, somewhere to maybe figure things out; producing fictional architecture as a way to process something i find destructive, regressive, unintelligable and polarising.
i've used artificial intelligence software to produce architectural elements in response to my text prompts. ive then stitched dozens of these results together into a notional 14m long cityscape.
the literal biological brainlessness of artificial intelligence felt really apt as a mode to peacefully react to the unfolding catastrophe of the Truss administration.
i borrowed the conservative party's "A Plan for Growth" hookline as a kind of container for the project. a solitary campaign poster sits in a 4th floor window, it's hulking dullness the only fixed point of reference within the brainless hummmmmmm.
