Hayley Millar Baker is an Aboriginal Australian contemporary artist (Gunditjmara and Djabwurrung) of Anglo-Indian descent. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and she has been a finalist in numerous prestigious art prizes. Her works are held in major public collections, including the Australian War Memorial, Melbourne Museum, and the State Library of Victoria.
Hayley works across photography, collage, and film, exploring autobiographical narratives and themes relating to her own identity. A Series of Unwarranted Events presents four collaged photographic stories of the Gunditjmara people, revealing the harsh realities of life during the beginning of colonisation.
