Volto Umano reveals human nature’s weakness and volatility by injecting violence in the artists’ microsociety. The piece showcases society’s “small misdeeds” that can lead to ruthlessness. It highlights how fragile our civilization’s safety net is when ethics and morals fall victim to cruelty. When pride is revealed, humanity’s precarious balance can be broken at any time and create disaster. When violence becomes part of our lives, what side of us will emerge?
