Neri Oxman is an Israeli designer and architect born in 1976. She is best known for her work in environmental design and digital morphogenesis. She teaches at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Media Lab as Associate Professor of Media Arts and Sciences, and founded the MaterialEcology design lab.
Neri Oxman graduated from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, and then studied medicine at Hebrew University before attending the London Architectural Association School of Architecture and later MIT to study architecture. She coined the phrase "material ecology" to define her work, placing materials in context.
Oxman's work has been displayed at the Museum of Modern Art, the International Biennial of Contemporary Art of Seville, and the 2008 Beijing International Art Biennale. Exhibits include:
How can we design relationships between the most primitive and sophisticated life forms? Can we design wearables embedded with synthetic microorganisms that can enhance and augment biological functionality? Meet Mushtari, a 3D-printed wearable designed as a 58 meter long microbial factory that uses synthetic biology to convert sunlight into useful products for humans and microbes. Directed by architect and designer Neri Oxman, Living Mushtari was completed by the Mediated Matter group in collaboration with Stratasys, as a part of the Wanderers collection. Will Patrick of Mediated Matter was the lead researcher on the project. Additional collaborators include Christoph Bader and Dominik Kolb; Prof. Pamela Silver and Stephanie Hays of Harvard Medical School; and Dr. James Weaver of the Harv...
