To celebrate the release of Troy-Anthony Baylis' Let It Bleed Troy-Anthony will be in conversation with bryan Andy,

Troy-Anthony Baylis is a descendant of the Jawoyn people from the Northern Territory and also of Irish ancestry. He was born in 1976 and has been creating works of art since 1993. His multifaceted artistic practice is founded in the process of 'queering' and unsettling 'traditional' ways of representing Aboriginality.

The artistic practice of Troy-Anthony Baylis has included performances, videos, paintings, collages, assemblages, photography, knittings, embroidery, artist multiples, costumes, installations, parade floats and more. His work explores a multitude of themes including colonisation, migration, trauma, racism, sexism, homophobia, sadness, reconciliation, dark and seemingly self-deprecating humour and unbridled joy.

Often employing a bold use of colour and typography, the artist references pop-culture, art history, and queer aesthetics across a range of disciplines including visual art, cinema and literature. In addition to art making, their creative practice sometimes involves curating, publishing writing and presenting public talks.
