Valley Girls, a collection of serial 1/1s, is an exploration of the Uncanny Valley through AI-generated portraits. 

The Valley is a reference to the Uncanny Valley, a term used to describe the phenomenon where something that is almost, but not quite, human-like in appearance or behavior can cause a feeling of unease or revulsion in people. This concept was first proposed by Japanese roboticist Masahiro Mori in 1970. It is often used to describe the potential negative reactions to highly realistic humanoid robots or digital avatars that are close to, but not quite, human-like. 


In an attempt to bridge art and NFTs, the portraits feature traits based on popular collections from across  the Web3 universe. These traits dissolve into the portraits and will be instantly recognizable to those in the know.

Valley Girls is a collection of AI-generated portraits that explores the Uncanny Valley, a concept that describes the point where something that is almost, but not quite, human-like in appearance or behavior can cause a feeling of unease or revulsion.

The collection comprises serial 1/1s and is heavily influenced by the NFT movement, which has sparked a renaissance in digital art. It draws inspiration from popular PFP projects, such as the legendary CryptoPunks, featuring some of their most identifiable traits.

Portraits serve as a useful mechanism for evaluating AI-generated photography, and Valley Girls effectively harnesses this approach. Each portrait is a unique work of art that captures intricate details, exploring the subtle nuances that define human identity.
