The light is there, that soft Kodak tone, as if it had come from another time. A small restaurant appears by the roadside, its windows glowing in the twilight, promising something you cannot explain. Behind the trees, there is a firework. It flares up and fades again, leaving nothing but a vague memory.

Like Pandora’s gesture, this opening is irreversible. It points to two core aspects of Markus Lehr’s work: sensual seduction and cognitive uncertainty.

I have been working with AI-generated images for more than two years now, and I currently experience a moment when things get almost too perfect. I like the early stage when my godlike partner didn’t have a clue what I wanted. The results looked perfect, but when you had a closer look, it was clear that it didn’t understand a thing. It simulated, lied, tried to be charming, and failed in almost all possible ways. But I liked it.
