Digital Transfiguration of ‘Young Knight in a Landscape’ (1505), by Vittore Carpaccio

“Digital Transfiguration of ‘Young Knight in a Landscape’ (1505), by Vittore Carpaccio”
This is my proposal for #VersionaThyssen22!

This piece is the result of an audiovisual reinterpretation process through Artificial Intelligence. Based on a meticulous analysis of each figure, animal, plant, and object present in the original painting, I digitally reconstructed over 350 elements using generative AI (ChatGPT/OpenAI), selecting and animating 250 of them in Runway.

Each figure was extracted, animated, and composed into a new scene using Adobe Premiere, preserving the spatial and narrative logic of the original work. This is an exercise in close observation, fragmentation, and reconfiguration — a way of exploring how contemporary languages can reactivate the aura of a 16th-century painting.
