In this series of works comprising several images and animated short loops, Ahmed El Shaer collaborates with Artificial Intelligence
to explore questions on the afterlife and how a machine imagines the metaphysical and the transcendental. All images produced
Through generative technologies, the final artistic works are fully created by machine intelligence, without the artist’s interference. A
radical experiment in what Islamic art could look like in the 21st century, away from stereotypical expectations and orientalist images.
‘AI Heaven’ is alluring and terrifying. The images play with our perception, unsettling our expectation of form and meaning, as we
stare into these works, created by a nonhuman agent.

As a final stage for the Artificial Intelligence Paradise project, I will complete the questions that I started with the project in March
2021. What if we asked our existential questions that trouble humanity with artificial intelligence as a neutral party? As the world
after death, whatever heaven or hell, can artificial intelligence exploit this human weakness and create an imaginary paradise to control
our capabilities? So at this point in the project, we’re going on a tour of motion pictures created by artificial intelligence.
