Beschreibung (de)	In this project, I examine how the male gaze is built within AI systems content moderation , where censorship and sexualization coexist. Drawing from Anselm Feuerbach’s 1852 painting Hafis vor der Schenke, depicting the poet Hafez and two silent women, the work poses the question: if freed from spectatorship, what voices might they reveal? This two-channel video installation reimagines the scene through AI video generation and live narration. Referencing Valerie Solanas’s S.C.U.M. Manifesto, it reflects on how Gen-AI, governed by moral bias, mirrors a patriarchal worldview - still defining what is visible and what must remain unseen.
