OPENING AND IN CONVERSATION Hayley Millar Baker: There we were all in one place

Please join us for the opening of Hayley Millar Baker: There we were all in one place.

Saturday 11 June, 2pm

The exhibition will be opened with a Welcome to Country from Aunty Helena Gulash and followed by the artist in conversation with curator, Stella Rosa McDonald. 

Refreshments provided. Registrations are required for catering purposes. 

There we were all in one place is an early career survey exhibition of cross-cultural artist Hayley Millar Baker (Gunditjmara).

From 2016 to 2019, Hayley Millar Baker produced five photographic series. Made almost exclusively in black and white, the photographs use historical reappropriation and citation, in tandem with digital editing and archival research, to consider human experiences of time, memory and place. Millar Baker’s layered photographic assemblages affirm Aboriginal experience and culture within the Australian imaginary to form a complex image narrative of place, family, identity and survival.
