Areeba Baig (b. 2002) is a Pakistan-born, London-based artist and designer working primarily with wood dyes and oils.
Her practice is rooted in themes of intentional and unintentional migration, feminism, and one's inner conflict. Informed by her background in Product and Industrial Design, Baig explores the relationship between materiality and visual narrative, often drawing on her deep-rooted familial connection to craftsmanship and her upbringing across Lahore, Sharjah and London.
Contrasting emotive storytelling with the solidity of wood, her process begins with water and dyes, embracing their unpredictable nature so that each work evolves organically.
She holds a BA in Product and Industrial Design from UAL and is currently expanding her practice from her studio in South London alongside teaching.
