For this second appointment, OVERTON WINDOW presents one of the most recent developments in Alba Zari’s research, a visual artist who favors photography and archives in relation to emerging technologies as tools for the exploration of memory and identity. We Have the Same Eyes is an evolution of the project The Y, born from the artist’s personal need to reconnect with the figure of Massad, the biological father whose identity she never knew. By using software like Unreal Engine, commonly employed in video game production, and generative artificial intelligence, Alba recreates the appearance of her father, gives him a voice, and begins a dialogue with him. At the core of this project is the study of family photo archives, from which the artist has learned to distill elements of truth through erasure and reconstruction, focusing solely on the present and the future, while conceiving the past and memory as a place of imagination in continuous re-signification. Starting with her own facial features, Zari explores her father’s face through 3D sculpture and reconstructs his expressions using gaming software. This process is completed by the audiovisual component of the installation, which brings the face to life and allows for the establishment of an emotional dialogue, achieving a moment of intimacy and revelation that is only possible in the virtual world. Showcased in the vitrine, the different components of this continuum will be on display, ranging from sculpture to video, culminating in the latest evolution of the voice. Through a simulation of conversations with ChatGPT and a voice synthesis program, Massad’s face is animated, attempting to fill the gaps of a conversation that never took place. We Have the Same Eyes seeks to explore the power of image and technology in giving voice to an intimate story and opening the doors to a new form of encounter.
