About this paper
Aven-Le Zhou
"Negative Shanshui" is an interactive VR artwork by Aven-Le Zhou that uses a fine-tuned AI model and gaze-tracking to transform traditional Chinese Shanshui paintings into real-time depictions of environmental crises. This system creates a multimodal experience to foster critical reflection on human-nature relationships and the Anthropocene.
Key insights
- Leveraging classical art forms with advanced AI and immersive VR can create powerful, personalized platforms for critical environmental discourse.
- Gaze-driven interaction in VR transforms passive viewing into active, embodied engagement, making abstract environmental concepts immediate and personally impactful.
- The artwork elicits a plurality of affective and interpretive responses, ranging from empathy and urgency to emotional fatigue or playful misinterpretation, highlighting the complex nature of audience engagement with crisis imagery.
