Total Recall: All Clear

The constant regeneration of the past through new technologies, and the non-stop consumption of recycled cultural copies, creates loops where the comfort of the familiar dictates the novelty of the future. These newly developed technologies are harnessed to refurbish the old, enabling an overwhelming saturation of desires with shorter life spans: synthetic images, our newest drug.


We are all serial consumers of empty simulations.





Noya continues his fascination with maximal extremes and the improbable by using AI in his work for its errors, imperfections, and its ability to amplify mutations until they reach absurdity. This preference for manglecore  the antithesis of the Midjourney aesthetic  gave birth to Total Recall: a melding of Cronenberg, Mapplethorpe, and Rammstein.


Instead of using an amalgamation of unknown synthetic people or a smattering of celebrities, Noya explores the extreme expression of the ultimate cultural icon and male sex symbol, Hollywoods very own bermensch: Tom Cruise. Toms face and the implicit edges of his varied public persona were ultimately the perfect conduit for the ultimate fashion-inspired-erotic-narcisistic-impossible-bodies post-photography series.
