Daisy Noyes is a photographic artist working in Australia and rural Massachusetts, utilizing analog camera-less technologies, as well as digital and traditional large format film cameras. Her practice bridges the fields of photography, performance, painting and installation. Her work is autobiographical, and references feminist art-making and psychoanalytical frameworks as it teases out questions around family networks, the politics of care, and interdependence. Her recent projects investigate parent-child relationships and domestic labor through disability-informed process-based methodologies. Daisy is also dedicated to the artist’s hand in the photographic process and often works in collaboration or at cross-purposes with her children.
Daisy has exhibited in New York, Massachusetts, Melbourne, Sydney, the UK and China, including at the Museum of Australian Photography, Head On Sydney, FORMAT Festival, and the Lishui Festival of Photography, where she was awarded the Expert Recommended Photographer’s Award. She has had work published in the Guardian, the Sydney Morning Herald, Marie Claire Australia, Galah Magazine, and Lucky Star Magazine, as well as an artist book, Detour.
Daisy holds an MFA in Photography from Bard College, and a BA (Honours First Class) in Performance from the University of New South Wales. She has taught analog film techniques as a visiting instructor at the Cooper Union and as a TA for the undergraduate photography department at Bard College.
