Lily Di Sciascio
Lily is interested in the intersections of design, culture, politics and marginality. Based in Naarm / Melbourne, she has studied anthropology and politics and is excited by the potential of multidisciplinary perspectives within the design space. She hopes to undertake a Master of Architecture or Urban Planning in the near future to develop a meaningful ethic of practice. Beyond aesthetics, economics, and bureaucracy, there are people and place. For Lily, design is an act of and response to culture, and an avenue through which we may work together to imagine and tangibly work towards new ways of existing in place. This ethos has guided Lily in her contributions to design communities, from being the Head Designer of the UniMelb Environmental Student Club’s zine ABLAZE or volunteering with the Melbourne Art Library. Through M_Curators, she hopes to facilitate community engagement through meaningful discussions about and contributions to the built environment.
