When asked about the programme, former Head of MINI South Africa, Thilosh Moodally said “Iconic design is part of the MINI DNA, MINI has always been much more than just a car brand – it’s a community and a lifestyle. The A3E programme allows us to embrace a range of young South African artists in the creation of their own visual identities, just as MINI has been doing for 60 years.”
