FACES is an interactive installation that tracks the facial traits of participants standing before a screen, and then unifies and aligns them to create an ever-changing 3D portrait of a single digital being.

FACES is an eerie amalgamation of images from strange dreams. It reminds us of the importance of physical, human connections, by creating a collective human made up from bits and pieces of all participants – linking us to complete strangers through profound blending of our skins, eyes, mouths, and every other facial feature.

Using Artificial Intelligence, the piece tracks the facial traits of participants standing before a screen, and then unifies and aligns them to create an ever-changing 3D portrait of a single digital being.

The experience is divided into three chapters that explore the volumetry of the face and analyze its features, each time producing a distinct visual composition.
