Art

Vision & Approach

Mina’s work investigates the structures of our reality in a perceptual way, lifting themes and conventions from architecture into spatial practice and visual art. Her artistic vision celebrates the multi-faceted world of lived experience between the built and natural environment through chromatic geometry. Applicable at a variety of scales ranging from paper, textiles to building façades, her work is characterised by layered, woven linework and optical effects with a spatial expression. 

As a practicing architect and artist, her multidisciplinary approach between the hand-made and digital pushes the capabilities of art as a medium for story-telling. This method opens up how we understand the impact of the built environment on our individual and collective identities. She began her artistic career exploring this theme at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in London, where she was commended for ‘Best First Time Exhibitor’  for “Berlin Artspark” (2013) and has since exhibited internationally between Great Britain, Bosnia and Germany (2016-2024) whilst practicing as an architect.
