is using Augmented Reality to present artworks which were stolen from their collection:
On March 18th, 1990 thieves broke into the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and stole several invaluable masterpieces. 28 years later, the frames remain empty.
The total value of the 13 stolen artworks is more than $500 million,
making this heist the largest art theft in history. To this day, the
case remains unsolved and frames which once held masterpieces by world’s
most renowned artists are left empty on the walls… until now.
Inspired
by the anniversary of the heist and our love for this local museum, we
decided to put our technology to use. Leveraging augmented reality,
we’ve digitally placed the stolen art pieces back in their frames.
We
wish for the safe return of the stolen art, but in the meantime, we
hope this project instills feelings of wonder, hope, and inspiration.
The Rockefeller Foundation has tasked 100 cities, many of which are capital cities, to build greater resilience and a more inclusive economy. Cities are resilient when they are ‘united’. Inspired by ‘The Blazing World’ by Margaret Cavendish the Duchess of Newcastle, the 1666 novel follows a heroine who discovers a world where diversity and inventions work harmoniously together; the knowledge of which she would later transfer to save her homeland, the United Kingdom.
The thesis employs this hypothetical premise to ask ‘how can Britain be a truly united kingdom?’ and ‘what is the re-imagined role of capital cities to suggest new urban cohesive typologies’. ‘Cohesion’, the new capital city of the United Kingdom is located at the centre of the British Isles – the Isle of Man. It is the speculative driver and investigative model to cultivate accessibility, green sustainability and compassion. The narrative aims to re-unite an arguably broken Britain in the 21st century, providing for the disenfranchised generation within the UK and the increasing dislocated global communities. While the UK’s Parliament performs as the head of foreign policies, the Queen is the champion of national unity.
