Urban Vision Urban Heart
Urban Heart is an initiative that brings art out of museums and into the city: an open-air exhibition spreading across Italy through Urban Vision’s Digital Out of Home network. Twenty-two artists transform public space into a place of inspiration and dialogue, where technology meets creativity. Inclusion, empathy, sustainability, and gender equality shape the works, reflecting an ever-evolving present. Urban Vision reaffirms its commitment to a shared, open, and accessible culture.
Capsa’s founders Alberto Maria Colombo and Anna Paladini were both selected to be contributors of this collective. Respectively they created the artworks “One” and “Fragile”.
“One” is an AI-generated animation created using a private dataset of 1,707 portraits of people from different ethnicities, ages, cultures, and social backgrounds. Through the unique capabilities of artificial intelligence, One merges these distinctive features into a single, fluid portrait. The infinite diversity of each face continuously blends, forming an undivided effigy — a surreal portrait of the human race.
“Fragile” explores the delicate balance between vulnerability and creativity, reflecting on the dual forces that shape human nature. Through a blend of traditional and digital techniques, it creates a contemplative visual journey where humanity’s emotional depth, creative impulse, and enduring connection to nature coexist in a state of quiet tension and harmony.
