Visual artist & software engineer, Helena Sarin has always been working with cutting edge technologies, first at Bell Labs, designing commercial communication systems, & for the last few years as an independent consultant, developing computer vision software using deep learning. While she has always worked in tech, Helena has been doing commission work in watercolor & pastel as well as in the applied arts like fashion, food & drink styling & photography.
But art & software ran as parallel tracks in her life, all her art being analog... until she discovered GANs. Since then generative models became her primary medium. She is a frequent speaker at ML/AI conferences, for the past year delivering invited talks at MIT, Library of Congress and Capitol One. Her artwork was exhibited at AI Art exhibitions in Zürich, Dubai, Oxford, Shanghai & Miami, and was featured in number of publications including the Jan 2020 issue of “Art In America” magazine.
