RESEARCH NOTE

Gallery/representative account, not independent observation or model test. Tools, versions, prompts, photo permissions and subject consent unknown. Reported 200-plus variants narrowed to about 5 are process claims, not all works. The 26 residency collages and 2022 AIseries remain distinct. Generated images are not documentary records. Unknown publication dates; footer/title not release evidence. In-person debut is gallery claim, not global first. Adds artist responses on source images, aesthetics and intentions; previous gallery reading limits preserved.
