HAYLEY MILLAR BAKER’S NYCTINASTY IN CENTRAL VICTORIAN INDIGENOUS FILM FESTIVAL

Join Jenna Rain Warwick today (O1.O6.2O24) from 2pm at the La Trobe Art Institute, Bendigo, for a curatorial introduction to contemporary First Nations video art in relation to two films, including Hayley Millar Baker’s Nyctinasty (2O21).

Nyctinasty centres on female power and strength in reference to elements of the horror genre that are often focused on women’s psychosis.  The female body is employed as a vessel to carry a present-day practice of magic and spirituality – descending from many millennia of spiritual practices.
