Lisa Dalfino and Sacha Kanah: Designers of Unprecedented Environments

Lisa Dalfino (born 9-9-1987, Como) and Sacha Kanah (born 17-11-1981, Milan) are a duo who define themselves as "designers of unprecedented environments and ecosystems." Their work involves extensive analysis, testing, and experimentation with materials. They blend reality and fiction, making the natural visually indecipherable. Dalfino studied at Accademia di Brera; Kanah studied at Accademia di Brera and Politecnico di Milano. They work in a studio-lab they call an "arena." Their creative process is interdisciplinary, drawing on science and architecture to explore systemic materialization dynamics. They aim to send works into orbit via satellite. Their cover image for Artribune Magazine #43 is a detail of an experiment with will-o'-the-wisps, nebulae, and mirages.
