Gruppebilde Bergen 2020 (assembling a dataset to generate portraits)

Brief description

The artist is assembling a dataset of citizens living in Bergen. The dataset is used to generate new faces both using the whole dataset or partial datasets classified according to age or neighbourhood (the photographed individuals classify themselves into categories by answering in what part of the city they live and what their age is). The used machine learning system would learn how photographs look like and generate similar ones. Out of several iterations of generated portraits the artist curates images for a group image printed on a big tapestry representing the citizens of Bergen,
