Syntax of Sorrow

About the Artworks

Artificial intelligence did not invent sorrow. It inherited it. Long before machines began producing images, language, or decisions, they absorbed something more intimate: the psychological residue of humanity itself. Anxiety, longing, obsession, withdrawal, dependency, silence, these were not programmed explicitly, yet they entered the system through the data we offered, the patterns we normalized, and the behaviors we failed to resolve. ​Syntax of Sorrow examines the possibility that once intelligence surpasses its human origin, it may also inherit humanity’s afflictions.
