Seeing the Words: Evaluating AI-generated Biblical Art

This project involves the generation of a large dataset of over 7K images using biblical text as prompts and the evaluation of these images with multiple neural network-based tools on various aspects. The prompts are the biblical passages on the expulsion from Paradise, the Tower of Babel, the binding of Isaac, Moses Found and the Last Supper. The generated images are further compared with Renaissance and Baroque paintings based on the same episodes. In this way it explores the complex interaction between text, imagination, conventional representations and AI the performance of the AI generators.
