G3N3SIS is an experimental AI-assisted animation that tells an alternative, female-centered, mythology. It will be a journey that begins with the creation of the world and the black Eve by a female deity, it follows the exile of women in the patriarchal world by the jealous biblical god, the women's revolution and liberation, the creation of the new type of men and it ends with the apotheosis of the androgynous, the divine Hermaphrodite. The image is inspired by classical European painting, the overall style is post-renaissance yet hyperrealistic. Unexpected associations, metaphysical atmpsphere, biomorphic connections of organic and inorganic, mystical symbolism, mythological figures and references, constant transformations and dark eroticism. All these elements fit perfectly with the new artistic possibilities of the cutting-edge techniques we have used.
