**Dead Internet**  
A solo exhibition by Grand Rapids artist, C.R. Warner  
  
With the rise of AI and the oversaturation of AI content and automated bots online, C.R. Warner feels both nostalgic for and grieved by the internet she grew up on. The very thing that gave her the tools, community, and confidence to create now threatens to take that ability away from humanity (and her!) with the evolution of generative AI technology. This series explores the human relationship with technology and the internet through a personal lens spanning a few decades.  
  
See this series that pushes boundaries of thought and highlights the power of watercolor.
