Ugly Truth

Ugly Truth

Unrecognizable
In every way, shape, and form.
It’s equally admirable and terrifying.
It’s what I needed and never wanted,
And what I wanted and never needed—
A balancing act
Where I hope the scales tip in my favor.

Utter Nonsense
A little grating—like a record skipping.
But I’ve grown to like the way it sounds,
Too tired to get up and walk across the room.
The soundtrack to my month.
My year.
I’m sure I’ll grow sick of it soon enough
And be forced to move.
But I just need another second here.

Ugly Truth
I am the very thing
I am trying to run away from.
It’s physically impossible—I know.
But if I keep moving forward
At a fast enough pace,
I swear sometimes—
Just for a split second—
I see my shadow lag behind.

Daily Program / Season #2

Flow State

This piece was created at the beginning of my exploratory project Fragments and depicts a man doing graffiti in the famous London tunnel, Leake Street Arches. The footage was captured by me on 13/09/2025 at 21:10.
Original

Violin

This piece is part of a sub-series within Fragments in which I focus on street performers, aiming to create one artwork for each musical instrument. In this case, the subject is the violin. The footage was recorded during a meaningful trip to Edinburgh with my parents, on 25/09/2025 at 13:50.

Seasonal

This piece was created as a reflection on the change of seasons and the way nature continually shifts its appearance. It captures a stranger walking in front of me as I crossed one of my favourite parks in Harrow, where I live. The footage was recorded on 25/10/2025 at 14:01.


Garden

Garden is part of my ongoing series filmed in the park where I live in Harrow. Despite its simplicity, the place acts as a quiet refuge, a space where people momentarily step away from everyday life to reconnect with nature. The piece follows two figures, a woman running (my mother) and a young man walking his dog, capturing the subtle beauty of ordinary movement. Closely connected to Seasonal, the two works were recorded only minutes apart. Garden was filmed on 25/10/2025 at 14:03.

I am beautiful

"I Am Beautiful" is a brief visual poem on vanity and the instability of self-image. The work emerges from the friction between several AI generators, combined LoRA models, and intentional parameter shifts that introduce small deviations. Instead of restoring coherence, I follow these deviations and assemble the resulting fragments into a brief sequence of provisional masks. The work suggests that beauty and ego are not fixed traits but temporary and empty configurations shaped by relational emergence.

Strangers

Strangers is a visual poem generated through a layered dialogue with multiple AI models. I combine different systems, mix LoRA files, and alter parameters in ways that often produce unstable transitions. The piece unfolds as a continuous morphing sequence, where forms appear only long enough to transform again. Distortions, glitches, and stylistic collisions are accepted rather than corrected, allowing intention and accident to coexist. The result is an oniric movement through temporary identities that surface and dissolve in relation to one another.

Idols 1

Idols 1 is the first piece of a triptych of visions co-produced with AI. The work translates moments of intensity like ove, communion, or brief spiritual clarity into unstable visual forms. Using layered models, mixed LoRA files, and intentional parameter shifts, the piece embraces glitches and divergences as part of its meaning. The result is a sequence of epiphanies where the sense of self loosens, revealing both darkness and joy in the emergence of shared, temporary “idols.”

Idols 2

Idols 2 is the second piece of the triptych, shaped around the interplay of love and "dukkha" (suffering). The work emerges from visions co-produced with AI, using layered models and parameter shifts that generate fragile, luminous deviations. The sequence reflects states where tenderness and discomfort coexist, revealing a form of wounded radiance. The piece follows the same generative method as the others, embracing errors and drift as part of its emotional structure.

Idols 3

Idols 3 is the final work of the triptych, centered on the images that shape identity. Co-produced with AI through layered models and intentional drifts, the piece reflects how the self emerges from reflections of reflections; memories, projections, and impressions inherited from others. Glitches and deviations reveal the instability of these images, suggesting identity as a field of relations rather than a fixed form.


Insects

Insects is a visual poem built around a short rhyme developed with a language model. The piece reflects a stage of meditation in which thoughts drift like small insects, appearing and dissolving without resistance. The visuals are generated by combining different AI models, mixing LoRA files, and allowing glitches and deviations to shape the result. The work follows the quiet rhythm of wandering attention, turning technical accidents into part of its internal movement.

Bedtime

Bedtime is a visual poem inspired by Zhuangzi’s butterfly and the fragile boundary between dreaming and reality. The piece began from an accidental prompt, an unrelated line about a k-way jacket, which became the seed of the work. Through mixed AI models and intentional drift, the images explore reality as a shifting field of reflections. Glitches and misunderstandings echo the uncertainty at the core of Zhuangzi’s parable, turning the accident into part of the piece’s meaning.

Funny things

Funny Things is a visual poem created through mixed AI models, conflicting LoRA, and welcomed errors. The piece reflects on fear and the quiet presence of conflict, using humor and distortion to evoke a sit-com-like nightmare. Glitches, useless gestures, and artificial creatures reveal how anxiety reshapes perception, turning technical errors into part of the emotional texture of the work.

Hamlet

Hamlet is a visual poem reflecting on how generative AI is reshaping performance and cinematic language. The piece explores figures that “act” without actors — echoes of gestures shaped by both human prompting and machine interpretation. The work considers the future of fiction at the boundary between presence and simulation, where creative possibilities expand even as traditional roles shift.

MUSIC VIDEO I MADE FOR MY UNCLE'S BAND

This work carries a deliberate ambiguity. Titled it as though it were a music video for my uncle’s band, though neither the song nor the band are truly present. This slippage between fact and fiction, between what is real and what’s imagined, is part of the pleasure of working with AI tools. It opens a space where contradictions coexist, but authorship, context, and meaning remain fluid.
What interests me is this tension between the obvious and the uncertain. AI allows me to explore the boundaries of truth, invention, and play, and to create works that embrace the instability of both image and narrative.

BEST FRIEND

Best Friend unfolds as a gesture of gratitude to friends, family, and lovers. It drifts between the intimacy of a dream and the watchfulness of a surveillance state, where moments feel at once private and exposed.
The work lingers in the paradox of tenderness and unease: a romantic celebration of the fleeting, as if no one is watching, yet preserved with the weight of permanence. Rather than looking back in regret, it honors the fragile beauty of presence, inscribing ephemeral encounters as though etched in stone.
ABCDJ

MANZANITA

Manzanita is an instrumental work composed with AI. An experiment that carries the intimacy of a home-recorded demo while revealing glimpses of its own potential. For the video, I turned toward a 2D paper cutout stop-motion aesthetic, weaving in motifs of Western culture and casino iconography.
At its core, the piece reflects both the possibilities and the unpredictability of AI. A prompt can bring us close to what we imagine, yet rarely delivers exactly what we imagine. The process feels like chance itself like spins of a slot machine, where luck and intention meet.
Manzanita stands among the most evocative AI compositions I have worked with to date. It opens a space for experimentation in sound and visual language. It points toward future explorations of this hybrid, dreamlike style.


GOLDEN BABY

Golden Baby drifts through scenes of the American West reimagined as icons of devotion: the corner gas station at dusk, a cluttered bedroom sanctuary, headlights stretching endlessly down the freeway. The familiar places take on the shimmer of the sacred. Ordinary and divine.
An ode to the hopefulness of new love, where reality melts into the sublime. A bubblegum-pop ditty where emotion and illusion blur into surreal tenderness.
ABCDJ

TOXIC MAN

Toxic Man is a searing pop-art critique of superficiality, rendered through the lens of AI video. This work presents a hyper-saturated vision of LA through romance, driving, and shimmering swimming pools only to dismantle it.
We explore the world that’s desperate to remain "pretty," through tireless maintenance. On its’ surface, scenes are comprised of romantic tropes. Couples in cars, bathtubs, scenic drives, and glamorous parties. Witnessing the disintegration of the "good life." By utilizing AI’s tendency to hallucinate, we expose the fragility of the image. The "Toxic Man" is not merely a character, but the culture of surface-level perfection itself. A beautiful, rotting simulation of keeping up with the facade.
ABCDJ

CREATIVE COMPROMISE

Creative Compromise presents a hypnagogic exploration of synthetic nostalgia, finding the line between home video footage and the uncanny ai hallucination. Visually anchored in the iconography of the cinematic mythology of Los Angeles, the piece imagines a familiar dreamscape of palm lined boulevards, red convertibles, and neon nocturnes.
The narrative creates a sense of anemoia, for a time that never quite existed. Vignettes of couples and wanderers that feel pulled from a photo series of late 90s youth culture zine, yet they remain distant and impenetrable.
Accompanying the visuals is a bedroom-pop ballad. The lyrics "Run away, don't look back... our song was pretty good" reinforce themes of fleeting youth and the impossibility of returning to a past that perhaps never existed. The architecture of memory.


Forms in Presence explores geometry in the world around us — the subtle rhythms, hidden connections, and coincidences that appear without planning.

Forest for the Trees

The title references the difficulty of examining details closely while also stepping back to see the whole. The scene suggests an alien landscape with strange physics, paired with audio inspired by analog tape music.

Redefinition

Vertical bars form the sorceress and ball, recalling monospace typography arranged in columns. Text-like fragments drift downward, representing a transition from text art into video work that incorporates typographic elements. The music floats and falls with the ball's motion.
Generated with Udio, edited in DaVinci Resolve

Touch Typing

The title refers to the disconnect between actions that were once physical but are now digital. We still use an hourglass to represent “time,” even though we rarely use hourglasses to keep time anymore. And we still use the word “keyboard” when it’s on a touch screen, despite the lack of physical keys.

Shadows clung, moist and fibrous.
Her cry traveled no farther than the wall’s gut.
The house ate, and hunger dimmed.

Dimittas

Varitas Lucis is a body of work that explores light, time, energy, and emotion through the evolving language of AI as a medium. I am interested in uncovering the qualities unique to AI tools—their capacity to bend perception, to reveal glitches that are not mechanical but soft, poetic, and human. This has become my signature “soft glitch” aesthetic.

My background in photography, with a BFA from Pratt Institute, deeply informs this practice. Photography taught me to create with light and shadow as expressive forces, and my years as a graphic designer gave me fluency in tools like Photoshop, which remain integral in my process. Together, these experiences shape how I approach AI as both collaborator and medium.

I chase awe in my work—that quiet, expansive moment of wonder, of hope. Each piece is a negotiation between chaos and organization, reality and illusion, darkness and light. I want the energy to be felt, yet to land softly. Even when shadowed, the work ultimately leans toward the positive, reflecting my own human feelings back through the lens of technology.

Cogitationis is a new direction in Jennifer Panepinto’s practice, a digital art collection that excavates the shifting terrain of time, memory, and nostalgia through AI-generated animation. Beginning with two looping video works built from custom image models, the series contemplates how recollection is engineered as a temporal loop, a visual echo that resists finality and instead lingers in perpetual reconsideration. Cogitationis offers an intimate meditation on the persistence of inner worlds and the unpredictable architectures of the mind.
