Miriam Habibe/ Collage Art

Miriam Habibe is an emerging Welsh-based artist of BAME South Asian heritage whose creative journey embodies resilience, identity, and self-discovery. After years devoted to parenthood and a full-time career, she has returned to her artistic roots, crafting deeply expressive works that bridge tradition and modern experimentation. Drawing inspiration from craft forms like weaving, she merges abstraction and mixed media techniques, forging an artistic voice that is uniquely hers.

A defining aspect of Miriam’s practice is the Japanese SAORI weaving philosophy, which celebrates intuitive creativity and unfiltered self-expression. This approach aligns with her personal journey and her longstanding practice of Japanese Buddhism, reinforcing the connection between inner transformation and artistic exploration. Miriam's materials range from fibres, painted glass, and digital mediums, reflecting her belief in the dialogue between the external world and personal experience.
