Albrecht Dührer's 1500 AD self-portrait was born of a daring connaturalization of religious iconography that continues to boldly dominate five centuries onward.

Through Drifting Dührer, a 21st century Muslim artist of East European descent and Eurasian Steppe Nomad roots challenges his audience to imaginatively engage with art, history, anthropology, and religion.

The dynamic audiovisual artist/AI collaboration, featuring guided GAN interpretations and extrapolations of Dührer's countenance drifting past and through arbitrary limitations of race and gender, poses open-ended questions about the sort of persons, societies, and worlds that could have given rise to the innumerable Dührer doppelgängers depicted within the work's gentle flow.
