Monica Rizzolli’s “Night Shoots” portrays generative landscapes and vegetation at night. It evokes the sense of someone checking an infrared camera, waiting for an animal that never appears, instead coming to appreciate the subtle changes of plants and moonlight. This revealing of hidden realities is mirrored in the Rizzolli’s unveiling of process. Following the explosion of NFTs, generative art projects are too often perceived only in their final expressions as single, discrete images. Through the interactive PDF, “Night Shoots” shows the evolution of the paths taken in the creation of a work of this nature, inviting the viewer to observe the paths of Rizzolli’s generative creation. In so doing, she offers a rare view into the creative collaboration between artist and algorithm.
