Majid Rabet - Engineer, Inventor and Artist

“I like to create … to make people happy and do something positive” - Majid Rabet
Majid Rabet is a mechanical and electrical engineer, inventor and artist whose natural curiosity has pushed him to constantly create. He has made his own tools and gadgets in the most challenging environments, and in his workshop has designed and manufactured everything from street art to a wind and solar energy capture device. After fleeing Iran to seek asylum in Australia, Majid found himself in detention, but continued to draw from his skills and imagination to create objects to improve the comfort and for the enjoyment of those around him.
