ABOUT THE ARTIST

Hayley Millar Baker (Gunditjmara, AU) is a cross-cultural contemporary artist based in Melbourne, Australia. Utilising photography, multimedia and research, Millar Baker examines human experiences of time and memory. Her monochromatic photographic works navigate experiences of remembering and misremembering while reflecting on how personal recollections and historical accounts are often improvised or embellished.

By digitally assembling photographs and archives, Millar Baker constructs complex visual insights into past, present and future realms. Storytelling becomes a methodology through which to narrate inherited and personal stories while reclaiming and reauthoring historical constructs. In her work, Millar Baker explores human experiences through an inclusive, non-linear lens that is connected to memory and contemporary storytelling.
