Michelle Baharier is an award-winning London-based visual artist working with collage, photography, painting, portraiture, performance, architecture-inspired drawing, and digital media. A graduate of the Slade School of Fine Art and the Städelschule in Frankfurt, Germany, her practice is known for its vibrant colour, layered surfaces, and emotionally resonant imagery that brings character and human presence into interior spaces.
Baharier’s work explores identity, connection, and place through a distinctive visual language that combines vibrant powerful paintings and architectural photography.
Her pieces sit confidently within residential, commercial, and cultural interiors, offering designers artworks that feel bold yet nuanced, contemporary yet deeply human. She works at scale and is experienced in producing site-responsive and commissioned works, which include portrait paintings for the London Transport Museum, and her work has been exhibited widely across the UK and internationally.
