Robi Gallardo on AI, Mobile Photography and Creativity
AI, Agency and the Human Imagination: In Conversation with Robi Gallardo Artificial intelligence has become impossible to ignore. Whether quietly enhancing the photographs we make on our smartphones or generating entirely synthetic images from a line of text, AI is redefining the boundaries of photography at remarkable speed. Yet while the technology continues to evolve, the questions it raises are far older than the software itself. What makes an image ours? Where does authorship begin and end? Can a machine ever replicate lived experience, or merely imitate its appearance? These are questions I continue to explore through this ongoing interview series for TheAppWhisperer. Rather than focusing on the technology alone,…

AI and Photography Interview Series: Bonobo Stone on Authenticity, Evolution and Modern-Day Cave Painting
Introduction There are few artists embracing artificial intelligence as unapologetically as Bonobo Stone. While much of the conversation surrounding AI focuses on questions of authenticity, copyright and creative ownership, Stone approaches the technology from an entirely different perspective—not as a replacement for artistic practice but as a rich source of raw material to be transformed through collage, experimentation and human imagination. The works accompanying this interview reflect that philosophy. Combining bold black-and-white forms with echoes of cave painting, ritual masks, symbolic portraiture and contemporary graphic design, Stone creates images that feel both ancient and futuristic. AI serves as the starting point rather than the destination; generated elements are cut apart,…

AI and Photography: Gianluca Ricoveri on Truth, Memory and Presence
Introduction In this latest conversation for my ongoing AI and Photography interview series, I speak with Italian photographer and artist Gianluca Ricoveri, whose work many readers will already know through TheAppWhisperer and our print store, where I have the privilege of representing his collection. Gianluca’s photographs – from his contemplative Tuscan landscapes to his richly observed botanical studies – have long carried a profound sense of stillness, intimacy and emotional attention. That quality feels especially relevant within this discussion on artificial intelligence. Gianluca’s images are rooted in observation, patience and lived experience – qualities that increasingly feel at odds with the speed and synthetic fluency of AI-generated imagery. His work…

“The Imperfect Human Hand May Become the Most Radical Artistic Gesture of All” — Jane Schultz on AI and Photography
Over the years, through TheAppWhisperer, I have had the privilege of not only publishing the work of some of the world’s most influential mobile artists but also forming genuine friendships with many of them. Jane Schultz is one of those artists. I first met Jane and her husband, Dave, in London some years ago, and what struck me immediately was her depth of thought, her warmth, and her unwavering commitment to authentic creative practice. Jane has long been one of the most respected voices within the mobile art community, creating work that is emotionally rich, layered and deeply personal. Jane is also one of the artists I represent through TheAppWhisperer…

Halide Mark III and Why Photographers Still Need to Make Decisions
I’ve been writing about mobile photography for almost two decades, and if I’m honest, I thought I’d seen most of it by now. Every year brings another camera app promising to turn the iPhone into something it isn’t. There are always more controls, more presets, more editing tools, and increasingly, more artificial intelligence. And Halide Mark III made me pause for a different reason. It wasn’t the new editing tools or the collection of Looks that caught my attention. It wasn’t even the promise of producing better photographs. What stayed with me after reading about the update was the sense that Lux is trying to have a conversation about photography…
Remembering Kerry Mitchell
I was deeply saddened today to hear of the sudden death of mobile photographer and artist Kerry Mitchell. I interviewed Kerry for TheAppWhisperer several times and, like many people within the mobile photography community, I always remembered the quiet sensitivity of her work. Her images never shouted for attention. They didn’t need to. They carried emotion in a much softer and more lasting way. At a time when so much photography competes to be louder, faster and more immediate, Kerry’s work did the opposite. It slowed you down. There was a calmness to her images, but also something underlying them that felt fragile and deeply human. I think that’s why…
“The Integrity of the Fine Artist Must Be Preserved” — Rita Colantonio on AI and Photography
Over the past few years, much of my writing and photographic research has increasingly centred on questions of memory, grief, spectatorship, and photographic truth. I have become deeply interested in how photographs shape emotional understanding, how images linger in the mind, influence perception, and quietly alter how we remember experiences long after the moment itself has passed. Photography has never simply been about documentation; it is tied to absence, intimacy, trauma and belief. We do not merely look at photographs; we inhabit them emotionally. At the same time, through my work at TheAppWhisperer, I have spent almost two decades observing and documenting the evolution of mobile photography and digital art from…
Mobile Art and Photography That Has Influenced Me with Filiz Ak from Istanbul, Turkey
We are delighted to bring you the twenty sixth in our ‘Mobile Art and Photography that has Influenced Me’ series of interviews here at TheAppWhisperer. I created this series of interviews to offer an opportunity to artists, to help to appreciate one another. When artists share their art, I interpret it as if they are baring their souls. To put work in the public domain, takes fierce trust, to oneself, of the process, not the outcome, the outcome cannot matter. When another artist explains how this art affects them emotionally and spiritually, it gives motivation to artists, to keep creating, to realise the influence they have, throughout the world, to give…
