In December 2019, Moretti collaborated with Italian art dealer [[Fabrizio Moretti (art dealer)|Fabrizio Moretti]] to present the exhibit ''Fabrizio Moretti x Fabrizio Moretti In Passing'' at [[Sotheby's]] in New York City. The latter Moretti curated a collection of [[Old Master]] paintings and the former conceptualized the interactive exhibit.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Izon|first=Juliet|title=How Two Fabrizio Morettis Created One of New York's Most Unusual Art Auctions|url=https://www.architecturaldigest.com/story/fabrizio-moretti-the-strokes-fabrizio-moretti-art-collector-sothebys-auction|access-date=2020-04-16|website=Architectural Digest|date=December 12, 2019|language=en}}</ref>

In December 2021, Moretti designed and built, "Kube," a nine-foot tall installation made of one-way mirror, polished steel and fluorescent lights. Inspired by the work of [[Yayoi Kusama]] and [[Bruce Nauman]], "Kube" was crafted by hand in Brooklyn with the help of welder Franco V. and artist girlfriend Gabriella Corey, and was designed to showcase the viewer and the object together as one being repeated ad infinitum.<ref name="latimes.com">{{Cite web|url=https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/story/2021-12-03/the-strokes-drummer-fabrizio-moretti-light-installation-art|title = Fabrizio Moretti, drummer of the Strokes, invites you to step into the rhythm of light|website = [[Los Angeles Times]]|date = December 3, 2021}}</ref> [[Anish Kapoor]]'s "Mirror (Pagan Gold to Organic Green)", a disc of polished and highly reflective aluminium, is placed inside the Kube. In an interview with ''Flaunt Magazine'', Moretti describes the experience from within the Kube, "[t]he crux of this is that you become part of the art work when you’re in it, as you just experienced. When you’re inside, you can’t see out. It’s almost like the viewer becomes this nebulous being—but outside the box, you can be seen very clearly.”<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://flaunt.com/content/fabrizio-moretti-sothebys-kube|title=Different Strokes &#124; Fabrizio Moretti Invites You into the Vortex with 'Kube' at Sotheby's Beverly Hills}}</ref> Speaking to the [[Los Angeles Times|''LA Times'']] on the concept of the work, Moretti describes, "[t]he mirror can be a source of vanity... But it can also be a point of self-reflection, you kind of see yourself outside yourself, one of many perhaps. And being able to see yourself and the relationship you have with the artwork kind of sanctifies that moment—I’m hoping."<ref name="latimes.com"/>
