“I write because I cannot draw.”
That statement alone would be enough to spark interest in Francesco Dell’Acqua’s work.
In his new project The Possible Bodies. A Plausible Authenticity, he takes AI beyond the misunderstanding of “digital virtuosity” and brings it back into the territory of art – where authorship, vision, and responsibility matter. A philosopher by training, television author, and communication professional, Dell’Acqua moves on the thin line between writing and image: the word as origin, technology as extension, painting as horizon.
Whereas linguistic power was once exercised through explicit prohibitions and recognisable censorship, today it lurks in the invisible infrastructure that regulates communication. Automatic content moderation does not impose explicit silences, but rather constructs environments in which certain phrases, words, hashtags and names disappear without a trace, pushed to the margins by the very architecture of the network.
