FACE CARD 43130 investigates the face as a currency within overlapping economies of data, influence, and spirit. The work constructs a passport for a digital subject whose identity is rendered, transacted and trafficked: a parallel to the transmission of tradition, where souls and data alike are channelled through modern networks of power. The central material gesture is the processing of this AI-generated persona through the bureaucratic ritual of the high-street photo lab; I printed the image as a set of official passport photos at Snappy Snaps. This act materialises the moment a trafficked image requires state validation, questioning what documentation is required for a persona, forged in the fires of algorithmic desire and social capital, to be naturalized into our reality. The title juxtaposes the social media ‘face card’ with the state’s ID card, while 43130 holds Islamic numerological significance, translating to 'dajjal'.
