Curator Insight
Agency and Machine in AI Video ArtBy Chiara Canali
In Venus Reborn by Loopo.tv, Artificial Forest by Kseniia Saraieva, and Echoes of The Displaced by Suwen Wang, we witness three distinct explorations of human–machine collaboration that foreground the evolving agency of artificial intelligence within the realm of audiovisual creation. These works do not merely deploy AI as a tool but rather engage it as an active agent—one that co-determines the aesthetic, narrative, and affective structures of the artworks themselves.

Curator Insight
These three works collectively question the concept of authorship, the materiality of digital image-making, and the politics of aesthetic agency. As a curator and critic, I am particularly drawn to how these videos propose new models of shared creativity—ones in which the ‘machine’ is not simply instrumentalized, but rather activated as a co-performer of meaning. In this context, agency is distributed, unstable, and fertile—pointing toward a posthuman poetics that is as much about sensation and speculation as it is about control.

In Venus Reborn, classical iconography is reimagined through the fluid, vaporwave and ever-morphing language of generative visuals. The myth of Venus is not just updated but algorithmically recomposed, evoking both a continuity with art historical tradition and a rupture from human-centered representation. AI here becomes a mythopoetic force, regenerating cultural archetypes through a non-human gaze.
-
Saraieva’s Artificial Forest presents a synthetic ecosystem where nature is no longer observed but simulated. The forest’s agency is embedded in its artificiality—it grows, pulses, and mutates as a reflection of technological processes rather than ecological cycles. The viewer is immersed in an environment that invites sensory contemplation while subtly dislocating the boundaries between the organic and the synthetic.

Wang’s Echoes of The Displaced explores memory and trauma through AI-generated imagery that seems to hover between presence and absence. The video evokes a sense of fragmentation and spectrality, where displaced identities and landscapes emerge and dissolve in a continuous loop. AI here acts not only as a generator but also as a medium of mourning—a non-human witness to human loss.
Thank you to all the talented artists who submitted their work
