 Lou Baker makes public things that are normally private. She is both a maker and a facilitator. Her work provokes a range of conflicting responses; attraction, repulsion, horror and hilarity. Some aspects of her practice investigate the transformation of materials and, increasingly, some focus on social engagement. Making intellectual connections between material, process and concept, her work has a confessional element, as personal memories resonate with universal themes. Stimulating conversations with her audience through performative actions, she facilitates opportunities for the viewer to become an active participant, to find a voice. Her works are provocations – often interactive, collaborative and participatory. 

​She graduated with First class honours in Drawing and Applied Arts at the University of the West of England, Bristol in 2015. In her final year she was awarded The Embroiderers’ Guild Scholarship, '15-16. She has just started an MA in Fine Art at Bath Spa University.
