Looking at you looking at them.

This series presents a collection of short, AI-generated video portraits of women, each figure gazing directly into the viewer’s eyes. The viewer is confronted by the subject’s steady look, challenging passive consumption of images and reframing the subject-object relationship.

The project engages with the nuances of “being seen” and “seeing back”. Each woman's gaze embodies an awareness that reverses the usual roles—prompting the viewer to consider their own position within the act of looking.

In confronting the viewer directly, this project is about the impact of AI on the intimacy of human representation.

The title has been inspired from the introduction of the article Society of the Psyop by Trevor Paglen
