TOO MUCH LOOKING, UNTIL THE IMAGE BURNS by FERNANDO SILVA

From sculpture to algorithm, from flesh to pixel, from gaze to vertigo. In this collaboration between Fernando Silva and the curatorial collective Glosopeda, the piece TÓNICO is split open and multiplied. Its fragmented body —that form already weary of being just sculpture— now plunges into the abyss of machinic vision. 

Starting from one of his sculptures, we have invited AI to look, reinterpret, deform, and reinvent the work to the point of exhaustion —an exercise somewhere between play and delirium. Derivations, repetitions, variations to the point of excess: AI as an unrelenting mirror, as a hypnotic fire in which to remain entranced, where looking too long becomes an act of both resistance and pleasure. TÓNICO is no longer an object, but an infinite sequence of possibilities. 

A digital drift where the human is merely a starting point, and the gaze becomes a choreography of errors, intuitions, and deviations. Within the context of The Wrong Biennale, this project functions as a visual laboratory —an interspecies collaboration experiment between artists, curators, and machine. 

We are not seeking the definitive version, but the collapse of form; that moment when the image, after so much self-observation, dissolves into pure vibration. Between playfulness and excess, TÓNICO (different ways of seeing) is an invitation to lose control of the gaze. To let the work burn in its own fire. To savor the vertigo of seeing too much.
