aurèce vettier

aurèce vettier is an art project by Paul Mouginot, one of the few artists engaged in training their own AI algorithms and networks. Even the alias, formed by algorithm, is a metaphor for the artist’s desire for a collaborative, open and hybrid approach, which includes the use of more tactile genres, such as sculpture, painting, and textile.

Poetry is the backbone of aurèce vettier’s entire practice, whose first work was to publish a book of poetry in collaboration with a machine. Without ever replacing the artist, the algorithms thus served as a camp aid, generating raw material that was subsequently assembled by hand.
