Tiyan Baker is a Bidayǔh-Anglo artist who works with video, installation and photography. Her practice draws on historical research, language reclamation, digital processes and material play to explore embodied Bidayǔh histories and subjectivities. By piecing together language, landscape and story, her practice celebrates indigenous knowledge and explores their radical potential to upend Western ideologies. She 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.
