Raisa Raekallio (Kittilä, Finland) and Misha del Val (Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain) are a Lapland-based artist couple working in collaboration in paintings, drawings, ceramics, comic-strips and performance art pieces. Raekallio and del Val started their working collaboration in 2013 following an uncannily similar sensitivity for art, films and music; a devotion for the forest; and a deplorable sense of humour.
