Head:Sculpture, presented at Plug-In ICA, Winnipeg, Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Part of Stages 2017, for Plug-In ICA, Winnipeg (solo presentation) <br/><br/>Erica Eyres’ artwork is influenced by the social and artistic milieu of Winnipeg, where she was born and regularly returns from her current home in Glasgow. She embraces awkwardness and humour through episodic work which often has a lo-fi craft aesthetic. Her biography is frequently the subject of her work, which she obscures through costuming, narration and role reversals. For STAGES she has disembodied and blown up a head into an inflatable sculpture that she has placed outside on top of a small commercial building. The head hauntingly yet pathetically is tipped on its side, severed from its body, tied to the roof of an abandoned building, which is destined for demolition. Head is set hovering from above, perched on the corner of a busy street; it is both starling and comical. For those passing by, there is a possible double-take. The inflatable has the implied connotation of an advertising gimmick, but something isn’t right. The eyes are off center, the nose flattened and the mouth pursed, and the building below is vacant with the sign covered in white vinyl. The head just looms.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
