Biography

Trisha Baga was born in 1985 in Venice, Flordia. Baga is a Filipino-American artist working in stereoscopic 3D video installation, paint, clay, consumer grade electronics, and community performance. Compelled by an interest in what they call “the stuff that makes things stick together,” Baga recombines objects and images into scenarios that address issues related to the environment, technology, and identity. For them, working in a variety of media is an optimistic metaphor for the power of diversity writ large, as they strive to unearth emotional histories and critically engage with contemporary image culture. Baga lives and works in Queens, New York, and is represented by Societe Berlin and Gio Marconi Gallery.

Baga has had numerous solo institutional exhibitions including at the Whitney Museum of American Art, Pirelli HangarBicocca (Milan), Fridericianum (Kassel, Germany), and Kunstverein München. Their work is in several permanent collections including those of the Walker Art Center, the Gesellschaft für Moderne Kunst am Museum Ludwig Köln, the Whitney Museum, Kunstpalast (Dusseldorf, Germany), and Moderna Museet (Stockholm).
