About the artwork

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.

About the artist

Jennifer Panepinto (QuantumSpirit)

Jennifer Panepinto is a multidisciplinary artist and designer whose work exists at the intersection of memory, imagination, and technology. While her practice spans photography, painting, digital collage, and glitch aesthetics, she has become increasingly drawn to the possibilities of artificial intelligence as a medium. Rather than seeing AI as a tool to replicate existing forms, she is curious about what makes it different — how it can generate unexpected variations, open new modes of storytelling, and push the boundaries between authorship and collaboration. For Jennifer, AI is not simply a technique but a space of inquiry, a way to probe questions of consciousness, impermanence, and the fragile beauty of human experience. Her AI-based work builds on decades of creative exploration, from her early years as a photographer to her career as a professional designer for iconic brands and, more recently, her participation in the Web3 art community. She is especially interested in how AI introduces both precision and unpredictability into her process, allowing her to explore liminal states — between memory and imagination, chaos and order, permanence and decay. By combining AI with analog textures, digital collage, and hand-driven practices, Jennifer creates layered compositions that feel simultaneously personal and universal. Through this, she continues her lifelong search for meaning in images, while inviting viewers to slow down, notice, and step into a space where technology becomes a mirror for emotion, memory, and wonder.
