About the artist
It is primarily through photography that Sandra feels the need to create become evident. By manipulating her images as both support and medium, she gives rise to works that lie between the real and the imaginary.
Fascinated by the artistic direction possibilities offered by artificial intelligence, her approach remains instinctive and emotional. She guides and shapes AI as a material: choosing, blending and kneading descriptions, keywords, iterations, and parameters, until she achieves the exact likeness of her own imagination.
Thus, if the photographer captures the present moment of a reality, Sandra—the AI-artist—captures a moment of her imagination, rendered into reality by the generated image.
Her style is recognizable in the play she makes with blurring the boundaries: between reality and imagination, between photography and IA-graphy, between masculine and feminine. Love, melancholy, identity and the intimate are at the heart of creations she presents with sensuality and lyricism.
