Paige Sàez is a user experience designer and researcher focusing on the strategy and design of web, mobile, device and locative media applications.

In her personal artistic practice, she deals mostly with the creation and consumption of the object and imaginary devices to aid(or disrupt) communication. Sàez is fascinated by structures of participation in the production of knowledge and information and focuses her research on hacktivism, participatory economics and cyborg anthropology.

Sàez focuses her research on the intersections between visual studies, cyborg anthropology and art, and believes strongly that these are the center-points of social activism.

In 2007 she founded the Makerlab with Anselm Hook, an arts and technology incubator focused on civic and environmental interactive projects. To date the collaborative has produced two mobile applications focused on evidencing and facilitating local communities. The Makerlab also hosts weekly Sunday skill?shares, bringing artists and programmers together for potlucks and social activist endeavors.

From 2005-2006, she worked with Platial, a neogeographical map-sharing social network where she created over 100 Situationist maps.

From 2004-2006 she created Little Cities a project involved working with groups of people around the country building ad-hoc dream houses. Little Cities was a process designed to create new homes, new communities, and new ways to think about the meaning of home and place.

Sàez has exhibited work as a visual artist for the last 11 years and has shown work internationally, from Art Basil in Miami, to the Istanbul Biennale. She frequently collaborates on projects with Red76, a collective she has been working with for the last 10 years.

Currently Sàez works as a consulting strategic planner and user-centered experience designer for interactive, mobile products and services including web and mobile applications.
