Curtain Test / Gravity Study is generated from the painting Unseen Custodian (inv. AMPC2022003), photographed and used as image input in an early AI model alongside Lankina’s fixed “God is a woman…” incantation.  The system reinterprets the painting’s vertical pull and muted palette into a slim figure pressed against a dividing wall, with a thick curtain or slab framing one side like a stage element or test surface. The pose feels slightly off balance, as if the body is being measured against the edge rather than simply standing in space.

The resulting AI apparition is printed onto Fujifilm Instax Mini film as a single small print, turning a screen image into a card that can bow, fade or disappear. The “Curtain Test” half of the title points to the way the drape operates like a device, something the body is being registered against, while “Gravity Study” names the quiet investigation of weight, lean and fall that runs through the pose. Inside Deities and oddities. it reads as a calibration frame, a mythohuman figure undergoing an almost clinical check of how much reality she can bear.

AI generated image printed on Fujifilm Instax Mini color film, 1/1, created using a photograph of the painting Unseen Custodian (inv. AMPC2022003, Archetypes on Quiet Ground) as image input together with the recurring prompt “God is a woman. Freckles. Bare skin. Linen. Crack in plaster. Love over death. Inspiration over desperation. Surrealistic interpretation,” then printed onto Instax Mini instant film as a one of one artifact.
