BEYOND THE PROMPT is Fornies' direct response to Generative AI use in art, through a series of oil on wood paintings. In contrast to AI's rapid image generation, Jordi adopted a deliberate approach, mediating between AI-prompted visuals and his own tangible paintings. His compositions, unlike their digital counterparts, were driven by human emotion, artistic intuition, and aesthetic discernment, resulting in a slower, more contemplative process. Meet the artist to understand his development process for this series, and the role of Generative Artificial Intelligence in his practice. Fornies will take us through his journey and how it evolves from previous series to this series, as well as where he is heading for future series. Curated by Khai Hori, Director & Partner, Chan + Hori Contemporary, Singapore About artist, Jordi Fornies Jordi Forniés, born in 1971, Huesca, Spain, is an artist and musician renowned for his painting, sculpture, and music composition. Besides working in a senior position in the technology industry, he holds a PhD in Chemistry, three Master’s degrees in Fine Arts, a Master’s in Marketing and Communication and a classical piano degree. Influenced by Antoni Tàpies and Joan Miró, his work explores themes of time, memory, and nature. Forniés has exhibited at the Venice Biennale and World Expo Dubai, and his art is in prestigious collections like Patrimonio Historico Nacional. Signed with Decca Records US, he integrates music into his art, with a keen interest in AI’s role in creativity. Fornies has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in many countries outside Singapore. His works are with numerous private and institutional collections worldwide.
