Cyber Matrix Prison
"Multi-Screen AI-Generated Images Installation"
Cyber Matrix Prison merges digital technology with sculptural aesthetics. The installation features five irregularly shaped screens that construct an immersive spatial field. At its core, the central screen displays a dynamic digital portrait driven by artificial intelligence. Utilizing generative algorithms for real-time processing, the system continuously shifts facial features between cyborg-inspired aesthetics and abstract metamorphosis. The figure’s digitized torso, crafted through parametric modeling, manifests as a fluid hybrid of virtual and tangible forms.
​
The four peripheral screens employ deconstructivist visual strategies, deploying high-saturation color palettes to build a matrix of metaphorical symbols. These algorithmically modulated elements not only establish a topological dialogue with the central screen but also provoke a cognitive recalibration of digital identity through montage-like visual collages.
Situated at the intersection of sculptural tradition and digital media, this work constructs an experimental framework for non-linear temporal perception. By juxtaposing the dynamism of AI-generated content (AIGC) with the materiality of classical plastic arts, the piece explores the topological relationship between physical and virtual entities within posthuman contexts.
The perpetually collapsing and reconstructing facial features of the central figure allude to the deterritorialization of biological existence through digital immortality technologies. Meanwhile, the mechanically repetitive generative logic reinterprets existentialist philosophy through algorithmic aesthetics—individual identity gradually dissolves within cyclical visual patterns, ultimately merging into data turbulence within cyberspace.
By establishing a resonant interface between physical space and digital information, the installation aims to open cognitive gateways to "metareality." Operating at the confluence of techno-philosophy and visual poetics, it invites viewers to re-map the evolving frontiers between matter and information in the algorithmic age.
