A photographer fooled an entire world with fabricated images, an artist invites us to interact with an AI agent trained on her own life, childhood, and heartbreak—and in another project, new, uncanny ecosystems are created as archives and algorithms mutate into new species. In The Machine’s Eye in Human Hands at Fotografiska Stockholm, eight artists come together, each diving deeply into AI in contemporary image-making in entirely different ways.

This visually striking and thought-provoking exhibition explores generative artificial intelligence and its impact on contemporary image creation. Here, eight internationally renowned artists from across the globe meet in an intense exploration of what it means to create images in a time when just a few words can generate an entirely new reality. This is an exhibition that not only shows the rapid pace of development—but places us right in the middle of it.

The exhibition explores the human impulses that recur in every technological shift, with a focus on the artists’ perspectives. Through historical parallels, it reveals how photography’s fundamental functions—to bear witness, preserve, seduce, and mislead—persist even as the tools change.
