Memories Atlas is a series of artwork that explores how machines interpret and re-create private/collective memories.

Waiheke is a series of prints of transparency film selected from a trained video from a GANs model. The original footage is the artist's family video recording of playing on the seaside. Each frame from the original video is intercepted as the dataset used in machine learning. Past moments in time are re-lived through the eyes of an artificial intelligence model, reconstructs and reinterprets the original everyday fragments through training. It attempts to explore how memories are displayed artificially. How does artificial intelligence reconstruct the memory fragments of the past through its observation?
