Tiyan Baker
Tiyan Baker is a Malaysian Bidayǔh/Anglo Australian artist who makes video and installation art. Baker examines sites of contemporary cultural crises, and uses field research, documentary techniques and digital processes to question established discourses and reveal bias, frailty and failure. Baker’s practice also engages with her Bidayǔh heritage, piecing together language, landscape and story to celebrate Bidayǔh knowledge and explore its radical potential to upend contemporary Western ideologies. Baker was born and raised on the Larrakia lands known as Darwin, and currently lives and works on the Awabakal and Worimi lands known as Newcastle.
