About

“After the Mirror” is an AI-generated video in which an image begins to author itself. Drawing from a single 2016 photograph of Schrager’s celebrity-as-art project Ona Artist, a painted self-portrait dissolves into liquid cascades and mirrors, transforming into a living, dancing figure that multiplies and regenerates. For the show “The Human Interface,” she evolves into self-sustaining reproduction — an image that no longer needs its maker to bloom and persist.
