Portrait of You is a series of generative living artworks that evolve with digital behavior inspired by Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray. Each portrait undergoes a transformation using a generative AI model at every increment of its owner's unproductive screen time, capturing the gradual erosion of identity in the age of distraction. The portraits will reset weekly at midnight EST on Sunday, giving each person a new chance at redefining themselves in an ongoing public installation of self-surveillance.
