KATE BAKER

Baker’s work gives us a very sophisticated resolution of a glass medium that feels entirely contemporary and rooted in the moment of now. It is the fusion of both traditional practice and pushing the glass medium to blur the boundaries beyond a painting, beyond a photograph and beyond glass.
— Nick Mitzevich, Director of the National Gallery of Australia

Kate Baker’s photographic assemblages challenge what I think I know about material, the body and movement. It is compelling work that implores me to keep looking, to keep trying to understand what is just beyond my grasp.
— Susie J. Silbert, Curator of Postwar and Contemporary Glass, The Corning Museum of Glass, New York.

Just like a glass bottle can be a receptacle for a rare and transformative substance, Baker’s works act as exquisite containers of human experience, filled with emotions and memories slowly conjured into the three- dimensional realm.
— Briony Downes, Australian Arts Writer
