IREGULAR | FACES

In a collaboration with the Municipal Foundation of Culture, Education and Popular University of Gijón/Xixón, the Embassy of Canada in Spain and Québec Office in Barcelona, Faces arrives at Centro de Cultura Antiguo Instituto, an interactive installation created by Montreal-based digital art studio Iregular. 

Using Artificial Intelligence, the piece tracks the facial traits of participants standing in front of a screen, and then unifies and aligns them to create an ever-changing 3D portrait of a single digital being.

Faces is an eerie amalgamation of images from strange dreams. We’ve long dreamt of physically reconnecting with people in the past years, and we now have the opportunity to do it again. This artwork reminds us of the importance of such connections, by creating a collective human being made up from bits and pieces of all participants.
