Trisha Baga (born 1985 Venice, Florida) is an American artist living and working in New York City.
In 2015 she added clay sculptures[2] to her exhibitions, an outgrowth of her involvement with the ceramics club,[3] a loosely gathered group of artists who meet at Greenwich House Pottery.
[8] Baga's videos and installations are non-linear in nature, often rejecting overt narratives [12] and using a visually cacophonous, arguably psychedelic,[13] aesthetic and humor[14] to explore pathos,[15] gender identity, environmental issues, pop culture,[16] and more.
Art critic Roberta Smith touches on themes in Baga's work in her review of the exhibition Orlando in the New York Times, writing, "Here Ms. Baga crosses Orlando, Fla., with 'Orlando,' Virginia Woolf’s novel of same-sex love and gender fluidity; people on a cruise ship; and, according to the gallery news release, at least, catastrophic global warming.
I think it is also related to how I’ve been stepping away from narrative video, or at least making an attempt to curve an abstraction of the arc, back into a circle.
