Title

The Digital Mask

Creator

Musleh, Ghazal

Abstract

This project explores the intersection of photography and artificial intelligence to examine identity in the digital age. Through the concept of a fragmented digital mask, it reflects how individuals construct and perform versions of themselves online while concealing their authentic identities. The work highlights the tension between human emotion and technological mediation, questioning whether AI-enhanced art diminishes or transforms human expression. Using visual distortion and light, the project symbolizes the loss of individuality and the influence of societal expectations, ultimately inviting viewers to reconsider what it means to be human in an increasingly digital world.
