Artist in Residence 2024 - Julie Wu is a multicultural ceramicist from the United States. During her three week residency at Aviário Studios, Julie created two human torsos using terra cotta clay and red terra sig, and explored surface textures using stencils that mimicked the screen printing process. Looking to speak on the intersection of technology and social health, and the ways in which language can be understood, misinterpreted, and given new meanings, Julie was interested in the integration of AI with our surroundings. She allowed the viewer to give their own meaning and significance to her piece, challenging the notion of a single source of truth. She urged them to interpret it in many different ways by noticing how one small change in a sentence structure or word usage when generating a prompt could lead to a multitude of possibilities.
