IN-GALLERY | Exploring Portrait Mode: The Divine Selfie

Join the Portrait Gallery and Poetry Camera for a new kind of poetry workshop. Created by Kelin Carolyn Zhang and Ryan Mather, Poetry Camera is a camera that writes poems about what it sees. Using this unique technology as a platform for discussion, explore portraits in the museum's collection through a new lens. In the second half of the workshop, turn the camera inward to create a poetic portrait of yourself. Explore questions of selfhood, bias, authorship and dignity in the age of AI through the Portrait Gallery’s permanent collection. Free – Registration required. For ages 18+

The Portrait Gallery strives to provide programs that are accessible to all visitors.
