CRISTIAN MOHADED

Cristián Mohaded is an Argentine artist and designer born in the countryside (Catamarca, 1980). As a designer, he has always worked closely with artisans from his home country, exploring traditions, crafts, and local culture, blurring the line between design and art. 

He also works internationally as an independent designer in the fields of furniture, lighting, objects, spaces and installation. From private commissions to industrial companies, he is dedicated to developing and designing products with a strong focus on materiality, artisanal techniques, and production processes. Some of his latest collaborations include collections for Louis Vuitton, Loro Piana, CC-Tapis, Moooi, Etel and Molteni among others. 

His works were selected and incorporated into the permanent collection of the Denver Art Museum (Denver, 2024), the Museum of Arts and Design (New York, 2022), the Philadelphia Museum of Art (Philadelphia, 2019), and at the Musée Des Arts Décoratifs (Paris, 2014). He presented Territorio Hibrido, his first individual exhibition at the National Museum of Decorative Art (Buenos Aires, 2021), and lately Protomorfosis, a solo exhibition at the Emilio Caraffa Museum (Córdoba, 2023). Cristián was awarded with the Konex-Award 2012 -2022 (Visual Arts), by the Konex Foundation, the most important cultural argentine award.
