After handing over an unhealthy amount of agency to ChatGPT in 2025, I felt compelled to find myself again. Among the sprawling Large Language Model, I searched through our chat logs for myself - the Small Language Model.

Small Language Model (2025) is a reconstruction of my own body during peak agency divorce, sitting in the studio, dejected, contemplative and only somewhat human.

Each word is printed on nylon fabric in my own handwritten font, glowing under UV light. Reconstructing myself using a year's worth of chat logs, I feel as though these words, and my work, belong to me again.
