Belen Comotto

MDEF 2025

Author image

Designer and researcher exploring biofabrication, interspecies relations, and regenerative futures. With a bachelor's in Process Design and a background in public policy and environmental activism, her practice bridges collective agency, scientific knowledge, and embodied experience. She is currently developing a process that transforms fabric waste through mycelium cultivation, exploring circular processes as an alternative to linear production. Her work within the MDEF Master challenges the extractive logic of the fashion industry by experimenting with local waste streams, accessible fabrication methods, and symbiotic systems. Through this, she seeks to foster decentralized, inclusive, and locally grounded design practices.
