The work analyzes the transformation of the human face through image optimization processes using artificial intelligence. Starting with close-up portraits, each image is repeatedly subjected to enhancement algorithms (noise reduction, focus adjustment, lighting adjustment, color temperature adjustment, and facial restoration). The repetition of this process generates a progressive drift, producing an image that no longer corresponds to the original person. In a context where images are continuously processed and reimagined by automated algorithms, the work poses a paradox: the more an image is perfected, the further it deviates from what it represents. Enhancement thus becomes a form of erasure of identity.
