kaysha: We are two sisters, K. and S. We like art, maths, science, movies, legos and horses. We are curious and we are here to get to know this world of cryptoart too. Our art plays with shapes, colors and imagination.
We studied space, so we wanted to make a gif to travel between planets. The planets you see are part of the solar system. When the rocket launches you will see in order: Neptune, Uran, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Earth, Venus and Mercury. We didn’t put Pluto because it’s a dwarf planet. Since you can’t travel because of the Coronavirus we make the trip with our space rocket waiting for Elon Musk to reach us. Sound design by Locomoctavia
What’s special about being GenZ?
Cosa c’è di speciale nell’essere GenZ?
It is special to be GenZ because we live in a time of possibilities.
Maybe in the future we will drive a flying machine and I (S.) will be a scientist who saves animals from extinction and my sister K. will design video games for horses.
Or maybe artificial intelligence will take over the world and we will live locked inside small rooms, with a VR helmet that will be the only way to know the world.
E’ speciale essere GenZ perché viviamo in tempo pieno di possibilità.
Chissà, in futuro guideremo una macchina volante e io S. forse sarò una scienziata che salverà gli animali dall’estinzione e mia sorella K. progetta videogame per cavalli.
O forse l’intelligenza artificiale dominerà il mondo e vivremmo rinchiusi in piccole stanze con il caschetto della VR e sarà l’unico modo per conoscere il mondo.
How does it relate to your art?
Come si relaziona alla tua arte?
Although virtual reality might seem scary, it actually is a very creative tool. When I use it, I feel safe because I am with myself in a world without limits.
We made two works with VR: Whales Melody and PI Worshipper.
Whales Melody
Edition 1 of 1
“A long time ago, whales used to be killed for whale oil. Today, there are still places where they get killed for meat. We should save this species, otherwise it won’t be possible to hear their melodies in the oceans anymore and without that singing, the world would become sad”. Kaysha’s art piece “Whales” is a statement to preserve beauty in the oceans, but even more in the world. Beauty, at its highest manifestation, in its goodness and its reason to exist. Eleonora Brizi
PI Worshipper
Edition 1 of 1
Happy PI day! 3,14
But we do not only create virtual works. We also use other techniques and tools like brushes, pencils and colors.
Nonostante la realtà virtuale possa spaventare, è uno strumento molto creativo. Quando la uso ho come la sensazione di sentirmi al sicuro perché sto con me stessa in un mondo senza limiti.
Abbiamo fatto due opere con la VR: Whales Melody, PI Worshipper.
però noi non facciamo solo le opere virtuali ma anche con altre tecniche come pennelli, matite e colori.
Our dear Daddy
Edition 1 of 1
You always love your daddy even if he makes you angry sometimes.
What is the role of artists in today’s world?
Qual è il ruolo degli artisti nel mondo di oggi?
The role of artists is to tell and show where the world is going, while hoping to save the whales. We have our own ideas and dreams of how we want to live our future and we show them in our works.
Il ruolo degli artisti è raccontare e mostrare dove va il mondo, sperando di salvare le balene. Abbiamo le nostre idee e i nostri sogni di come vogliamo vivere il nostro futuro e li mostriamo nelle nostre opere.

What do you want to achieve / express through your art?
Cosa vuoi raggiungere/esprimere attraverso la tua arte?
A smile and a thought. If you look carefully, in each of our works there is an aspect, a character that inspires fun. But underneath that, there is a message dear to us that we want to deepen and tell with through the piece.
Un sorriso e un un pensiero. Se guardate bene, in ogni nostra opera, c’è un aspetto, un personaggio che ispira simpatia ma sotto sotto c’è un messaggio a noi caro che con l’opera vogliamo approfondire e raccontare.
