LAUREN BAKER
Lauren Baker (b. 1982) is a British contemporary multidisciplinary artist based in London. Her work explores symbolism, higher states of consciousness, and communion with nature and the elements. Delving into human connection, metaphysics, and the vastness of the universe, her practice aims to raise the vibration of love and unity in the world.
Passionate about environmental issues and sustainability, Baker uses light to express the 'secrets of the universe,’ creating conceptually grounded yet visually striking works that make the unseen seen. Her signature style often incorporates emitting or reflecting light, referencing the frequencies of astronomical bodies, plants, human organs, and chakras. A sense of mystery and emergence—of connecting to something far greater than the material world—pulsates throughout her work.
Baker has created numerous site-specific installations including a two metre bronze for the European Cultural Centre during the Venice Biennale, ten metre totems at Burning Man, as well as interactive installations ‘Letter To Mother Earth’ at Tate Modern, and ‘Objects Of Desire’ at The V&A. Her artistic journey began in 2011 with a transformative trip to South America, where she joined a street-art project in Brazil and participated in shamanic ceremonies in the Peruvian Amazon. She later refined her mosaic skills in Venice (Orsoni, 2012) and specialised in Site-Specific Installations at The Art Academy, London (2017). Her multidisciplinary works are held in collections worldwide. Her artwork has raised over £100k for charity, and her project has planted over 8000 trees in the rainforest.
