| Abstract |
|
This paper examines the intersection of materiality, agency, and transformation in AI-assisted artistic practice through Becoming Space, an installation of 3D printed sculptures and video. Drawing from Ovid’s Metamorphoses, the work investigates states of transformation between human and animal forms using generative AI and additive manufacturing. Through a theoretical investigation, this paper tries to analyze how material-discursive practices emerge in the convergence of language and physical materials. The work demonstrates how agency distributes across human and nonhuman actors in creative processes, challenging traditional notions of artistic authorship and subjectivity. This investigation contributes to understanding how generative AI technologies participate in artistic practices, revealing creativity as an entangled phenomenon where multiple agencies converge and transform.
