In his series Death of the Author, Postma uses AI as a tool for conceptual enquiry, generating images through text-to-image platforms and then subjecting them to analogue interventions. These works open a dialogue between the past, present and future of photography, inviting viewers to consider how new technologies might coexist with traditional practices. The choice of the Cowboy as subject matter provides a potent metaphor for the AI revolution: on one hand representing ideals of freedom, opportunity and self-determination; on the other, invoking histories of exploitation and extreme cultural upheaval.
