The ‘Red Balloon’ project consists of several elements: the photographer’s body, war photography, and AI. The initial idea for th is project came about after working with AI to generate a photo of war photographs. Surprisingly, AI cannot process any photographs containing violence. The reality of violence in actual warfare exceeds what these photographs depict. When discussing censorship in war photography, it’s crucial to consider how photography altered public perception of the Vietnam War in the US and how, in contemporary times, taking photos of any war involving the US requires government permission. Certain parts of the photos are obscured by red circles to comply with AI requirements, and the AI transforms them into red balloons. This artificial transformation symbolizes the manipulation of truth in media.
