Ahmed Ben Taleb (1991, Tiznit) is a Moroccan visual artist and designer living and working between Ixelles, Belgium, and Morocco. His studies of art and design in Morocco and Paris has shaped his work with a distinctly international and multicultural perspective.
Through his projects and research, he consistently seeks to bridge the gap between art and design, exploring the functional and formal identities of objects and forms. His work goes beyond aesthetics, striving to uncover the deeper significance and identity of everyday objects, elevating them beyond their superficial shapes and volumes.
Inspired by the vibrant colours of city walls and landscapes from his childhood, Ben Taleb’s artwork often features a layered use of coloured pencils, creating soft yet distinctive dimensions. Though pencil remains a favourite medium, his work spans a variety of materials, including acrylic, ceramics, and other textures, showcasing his versatility and ability to blend different forms and techniques.
