Hayley Millar Baker (b. 1990) is a distinguished lens-based artist living in Melbourne, Australia. Her identity is deeply rooted in her Aboriginality, belonging to Gunditjmara, Djabwurrung, and Nira-Bulok Taungurung peoples through her maternal lineage, with Anglo-Indian and Portuguese-Brazilian ancestry on her paternal side. Hayley’s work visualizes multifaceted Indigenous feminine narratives, offering poignant reflections on being, identity, spirituality, and the psyche, all rooted in her personal experiences and heritage. Focusing on the psychological landscapes of Indigenous women, she portrays their emotional and mental depth while exploring perspectives that honour their indomitable spirit and innate spirituality. Through her conceptual and abstract vision, she employs oblique storytelling to challenge conventions and push boundaries in photography, collage, film, and video.
