The work of Francesca Verga, Vera Saccabarozzi, Luca Trevisani, and Lorenzo Rebediani originates from their explorations of Glenkeen Garden, where they examined the threshold where sea and land ecosystems converge. This transitional area, known as ecotone, exists in its own unique temporal and spatial reality — one that transcends conventional notions of space and time, erasing measurable distances and intervals. In West Cork, this space is marked by a smooth, moist carpet of algae, which became the focal point of their work. The artists collected, dried, photographed, and printed the algae onto large fabric pieces. The algae, along with other ecotone dwellers, are flattened like specimens in a herbarium, in an ironic and counter-intuitive gesture that challenges Western scientific paradigms.

Lorenzo Rebediani and Vera Scaccabarozzi are landscape architects. Together they founded the Rebediani Scaccabarozzi Landscapes practice in 2018 in Milano. The studio works on the complex entanglement of the processes that define a landscape. Their gardens aspire to be living systems capable of growing and evolving with the people who inhabit them. They collaborate with international architectural firms and are lecturers at universities and cultural institutions. Their projects range from private gardens, community environments, and ex perimental cultural projects, to museum landscapes.

Luca Trevisani is a visual artist. His multi disciplinary practice has been exhibited internationally in museums and institutions. His research ranges between sculpture and video, and crosses borderline disciplines such as performing arts, graphics, design, experimental cinema, and architecture, in a perpetual magnetic and mutant condition. In his works, the historical characteristics of sculpture are questioned or even subverted, in an incessant investigation of matter and its narratives.

Francesca Verga works on curating, management, and research in visual and performing arts. Currently, she is co-artistic director at Ar/Ge Kunst, Kunstverein in Bolzano-Bozen, and Assistant Curator at the Italian Pavilion (Venice Biennale, 2024). She holds a PhD in Arts and Culture at the University of Amsterdam (2022). With a master’s degree in Museums Management (Milan, 2013), she held the position of General Coordinator for Manifesta 12 (Palermo, 2018) and was Curatorial Coordinator at the biennial Manifesta 13 (Marseille, 2020).
