In an urban underground passage, pedestrians are momentarily framed between pillars, creating fleeting compositions born of chance. These captured moments evoke an uncanny impression that reality itself is following a programmed logic. This phenomenon suggests an "inverse uncanny valley," where the real world feels algorithmic, not the artificial appearing real.
Unlike Surrealism's dreamlike focus, this work reflects a systematic unreality shaped by our AI-saturated era. It ultimately questions our human instinct to seek meaning and beauty in randomness through the act of image-making.
