Baylis' intention is to engage her audience, making connections. She has been representing everyday experiences since the start of her career; her intention is to glorify the everyday’, and to celebrate the beauty of subjects we see but may pass by without remark.
"Baylis provides an experience for the viewer to engage
with and be curious about, finding their own signifiers
within the work, unearthing their own context. She is
throwing out the breadcrumbs; it’s up to the viewer to
decide how to use them."
Rachel Baylis, MA (Fine Art), is a painter and film producer, based in London, UK.
