Reparative Logic #09
In the post‑truth era, social trust exhibits a state of “liquid fragmentation.”
Four Evidence Materials
Evidence Level：L0 Base Evidence
Work Overview
The work begins with evidence gathered from actual sites.
Through redrawing, masking, and collage, the image shifts from singular record to layered narrative.
The algorithm does not replace the author; it expands possibilities under authorial control.
The image ultimately returns to material scale and viewing conditions as a complete work.
Coartisan‑painting art no longer pursues perfect harmony but proposes “Digital Kintsugi” – confronting these cracks (whether algorithmic misreadings or historical ruptures) and treating them as new starting points for logical connection.
Field Evidence
Drawn from real sampling of urban surfaces, old photographs, object textures, and site light.
Hand Intervention
Overlaying, repainting, deleting, and renaming reactivate authorial judgment within the image.
Algorithmic Inference
The algorithm generates relationships and variants, but does not make the final judgment.
Material Return
The final output returns to paper, canvas, or panel, completing its material embodiment.
