How Gretchen Andrew’s AI art is revealing the societal scars of ‘facetuning’

Gretchen Andrew, a former Silicon Valley software engineer turned artist, has created a series titled "Facetune Portraits: Universal Beauty" that critiques unattainable beauty standards perpetuated by social media and AI. Using images of Miss World contestants, she employs the apps Facetune and Body Tune to digitally alter the photos, then works with creative robotics company Matr Labs to produce oil paintings. An oil paint printer creates the original image, and an XY-axis drawing robot adds brushstrokes based on discrepancies between the original and AI-modified versions, resulting in unsettling portraits that highlight the 'scars' of digital manipulation. The series won the Acquisition Award at Untitled Art Miami Beach and has been shown at Hope 93 gallery in London and Heft Gallery in New York, with a major institutional acquisition pending.

The Walters Art Museum in Baltimore has opened an exhibition titled "Paws on Parchment," exploring the depiction of cats in medieval manuscripts from Europe, Asia, and the Islamic world.
