About the artwork
Climate delves into the depths of my subconscious, rooted in childhood fears and anxieties about climate change and pollution. While growing up, I was inundated with alarming information, leading me to believe that by adulthood, the world would be devoid of trees, animals, and fish. So, this piece is less about an ecological message and more about how this alarming information played out in an absurd, almost fantastical way in my mind.

Audio explanation
Listen to Alice Gordon discuss this work.
Alice Lane Gordon has been long engaged in the meditative practice of sketching and doodling. While these have been constants in her life, artificial intelligence has recently become the catalyst for professional practice to emerge.
Identifying as a raw AI maximalist, she shuns post-editing processes, and her artistic journey is marked by extensive exploration and experimentation with AI text-to-image and text-to-video tools. Alice draws inspiration from the surrealist movement, infusing her work with a passion that manifests in a distinctive style she terms "absurdist surreal lonerism." This approach reflects her philosophy, capturing the essence of solitude and the absurd in a visually compelling manner.
