The “Pojęcia / Concepts” project explores interpretations of concepts at the intersection of written, visual (artistic) language and artificial intelligence, focusing on individual relationships in understanding these concepts. Its goal is to explore whether verbal and visual representations of concepts have the same capacity for meaning. Participants in the project were asked to represent one selected concept (word) through a written, artistic statement (static and video works) and to provide the 20 most accurate near-symbolic terms for their chosen word. The descriptive part and the close-meaning words (prompts) provided the material for generating AI images. In this way, two, often divergent, interpretations of the same term were created: those created by the author and those created by artificial intelligence. The project, over its one-year duration, involved nearly 300 students from 22 universities around the world.
The exhibition was included in the Łódź Design Festival 2025 program as part of the open call open programme.
