During this workshop we created a collective visual backdrop with digital and analog means. The participants worked and re-worked their own visual portraits into composing a collective pattern using various digital, automated, and analog tools such as collage and composing, photography, printing/copying, and artificial intelligence. The participants then used the backdrop to take self and collective portraits.

Throughout the workshop we had insightful moments of discussion, critically reflecting on our references, choices and processes. We explored themes of beauty, taste and visual norms, as well as artificial intelligence and generative graphics for the production of hyper-images and new concepts of beauty. Discussions also based itself on questions of self-image, identity and the perception of the self and others; activism and the power of crafting messages to ourselves and others through visual intervention.
