+ OVERVIEW

The young yet talented artist, Lily Alice Baker, was born in the UK and is a recent graduate of Goldsmiths. She delves into the intricate surges of human emotions within chaotic and certain environments. Her distinct liquid-like brushstrokes and distorted, contorted bodies portray the tensions created by sexes in a patriarchal society – whether in matters of sexuality or gender. These bodies fluxion in scenes that are almost abstract. Baker's unique painting techniques turn her works into ongoing stories, leaving the endings open to the viewers. Her art invites them to search for intimate narrative fragments within the intense, layered details of her pieces. For instance, take the painting 'Off Side,' which captures an exciting moment while other unknown stories brew and wait to be unearthed in the peculiar space of the background.
