This work examines the subtle tension between social identity and inner self. While individuals present multiple faces shaped by social, emotional, and situational roles, a distinct inner identity remains beneath these surfaces.
The figure and background are generated through AI-based processes, symbolizing the increasing standardization of individuality within contemporary social and corporate systems, where human presence is often reduced to a functional unit. In contrast, the hand-painted jewelry elements represent the irreplaceable core of personal identity—something resistant to automation or replication.
Through the contrast between AI-generated anonymity and hand-rendered specificity, the work visualizes the tension between performed social roles and the enduring presence of the self.
