The slow erasure of the future is a photographic series created with the use of artificial intelligence and critically reflecting on it at the same time. Each image originates from a single, unaltered photograph. This original image remains the core of the final composition and is never replaced or overwritten. Using AI-based image expansion, the photographs are extended beyond their original frame. The system is asked to speculate on what might exist outside the visible edges of the image, relying solely on visual information rather than textual prompts. Through this process, the AI generates continuations that are plausible yet inherently detached from lived experience. The expansion is carried out in multiple steps, gradually increasing the distance from the original photograph. This layered method mirrors a broader structural shift: as artificial intelligence increasingly learns from content generated by other AI systems, it begins to reinforce its own logic, creating a closed loop of reference. Over time, this process risks flattening difference, reducing complexity, and eroding the connection between images and the realities they once indexed. Rather than presenting artificial intelligence as a tool of innovation, The slow erasure of the future approaches it as a system that subtly reshapes visual culture, memory, and authorship. The series examines how images can slowly drift away from their origin, pointing toward a future that is continuously reproduced, yet gradually emptied of new experience.
