“Nulla virtus prudentia vacat” – No virtue is without prudence.
The two works “Universal Language” and “Limitless” are part of the Nulla Virtus project, conceived by SMOE Studio and created in Milan on the occasion of the 2026 Winter Olympics
UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE
“UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE” Created in November 2025 on the wall of the Milan preschool, the painting covers approximately 200 square meters. The painting is the result of the inspiration shared by the contenders, who burst beyond their own flags, sending a unified message of peace and mutual respect. The characters’ smiles dissolve boundaries and prejudices, blending into a symbolic celebration, as the universal language of sport has always taught us.
LIMITLESS
LIMITLESS
This is the first work to be completed on a 280-square-meter site at Via Toscana 9. It celebrates human adaptability and the challenge of sport, against nature, the clock, and the elements. These values are based on the physical and mental abilities of training fatigue as a way to overcome serious illnesses that have been defeated. The athlete’s helmet features a reference to the colors of the Meningitis Prevention Flag.

LIMITLESS – DICEMBER 2023
The artwork took 15 days to be completed. The 31-meter-high, 12-meter-wide wall looms over the city like a gigantic canvas. The work is clearly visible from Via Ripamonti in Milan.
