I am Mozh Dinani (she/her, 1996, Iran) an interdisciplinary artist with a focus on the soma (body-mind) in power structures, currently studying MA in Art in Context at the Berlin University of the Arts. I graduated from Tehran University of Art with a bachelor’s degree in Handicrafts, two years of jewelry-making specialization, and explored wearable art and conceptual jewelry concerning the human body as a creative space for artistic practice. Since my bachelor's, I have been researching the philosophy and sociology of body and embodiment and experiencing different mediums such as video, installation, and performance art.
