Nelle regole della bellezza is the title of the exhibition conceived by Numero Cromatico for Centro Arti Visive Pescheria. Inspired by the theme of Pesaro 2024 Capitale Italiana della Cultura – The Nature of Culture – it sets out to explore the relationship among art, nature and technology. For the exhibition, Numero Cromatico worked on two large-scale site-specific installations: Codice Umano and Noosfera.

Codice Umano

Codice Umano gives the name to the immersive installation that unfolds, horizontally and vertically, along the Loggiato. The work dialogues with the space and is presented with different keys of interpretation: a theatrical curtain, a ship, a ceremonial place, a contemporary stele reminiscent of the one in Novilara, preserved in the Museo Archeologico Oliveriano.

Two major elements make up for the structure of the space: a large curtain composed of thousands of tiles on which symbols – natural and anthropomorphic figures – appear, hoisted through a system of ropes, and 24 hand-woven tapestries, lying on the floor. These expertly-woven written pages address the audience directly through texts composed with the aid of artificial intelligence. Archetypal forms, poetic texts, sound and tactile elements turn into projective stimuli drawing a ritual path along the Loggiato.

Noosfera

Noosfera is the title of the audiovisual installation designed for the dodecagonal space of the Chiesa del Suffragio. A sea of moving words, a constantly changing image-stimulus that urges viewers to take an active role through a personal interpretation, immersing themselves in the polysemic flow of projection by creating their own narrative.

In the Noosfera, digital networks, poetic texts, essays and compositions are merged with texts produced with some specifically-trained artificial intelligences.

The work urges the public to stop and isolate themselves with the help of sound frequencies, to observe the immense panorama of words and have a deep introspective experience.
