Daisy

Daisy is a queer koorie artist and writer who embraces the humour and humility of survival and belonging in a schismatic deep-fake post-truth context. Their practice fuses critical theory with ecosocial interruption, experimental sound, video installation, expanded painting and performance—as antagonisms toward the psycho-political conditioning that props up the settler state.

Daisy argues for the abolition of carceral cultures in art and education. Their research focuses on Indigenous Futurist methodologies and relational knowledge systems that contribute to anti-carceral resistance. They offer sustainable and spirited challenges to the depravities of discipline within the cultic milieu of contemporary art. Their submergent approach and unapologetic critique forms part of an ongoing search for futures that haven’t already been redacted and/or destroyed.
