In Database Paintings, each image is created by aggregating pixels from freely available images of artworks, sourced from the permanent collections of The Tate, Guggenheim, and Reina Sofia Museums. Using custom software and machine learning techniques, groupings of pixels are “mosaicked” and collaged from the original artworks onto a novel virtual canvas, creating images that articulate a space between recognizability and emergence.

JJ Levine creates studio portraits across three major projects: Queer Portraits, Alone Time, and Switch. In all three projects, JJ Levine provokes thought, while maintaining a commitment to formal photographic techniques. The underlying goal of his work is to celebrate resistance and resilience in the queer community.
