Feeling the Energy: Interactive Installation in Bergamo Park

exhibition · 2026-04-27

Feeling the Energy, an interactive installation by CRA – Carlo Ratti Associati in collaboration with Italo Rota for Plenitude, is on display until October 15 at Parco Suardi in Bergamo. The work, made of 500 meters of antibacterial copper, invites visitors to interact with elements like a living orchestra, a xylophone, windmills, and photovoltaic panels, demonstrating how energy can be generated through human-nature synergy. The energy produced will power park lighting and vaporizers. This is the fourth stop after Milan, Madrid, and Sanremo; after October 15, the installation will be permanently placed at Dynamo Camp in Limestre, a recreational therapy center for children with chronic illnesses.
