Mina Mahouti

Mina Mahouti works as a designer at the intersection of circular design, materials research, and craft. Her work focuses on both an ecological understanding of material cycles and the social and geopolitical contexts of matter. She holds a master’s degree in eco-social design. Currently, she is an Artistic Associate at the weissensee school of art and design berlin and teaches courses on experimental material research and circular design. Her material research approach is illustrated e.g. through the Common Flax linen jacket that has been on display at the Activarium since 2023.
In 2022–2023, she worked together with CollActive Materials, served as an advisor for the project, and was responsible for the exhibition concept, design, and production of AIRBOUND: Sensing Collective Futures.
