Biography
Darnley Islander, Ken Thaiday Jr. was born in 1971 in Gordonvale, North Queensland. His father, Ken Thaiday Snr taught him of his Torres Strait Islander culture, history and traditions. It is from these stories that Thaiday Jr has drawn his inspiration, re-interpreting them into his drawings, sculptures and lino prints. Thaiday Jr was featured in the 1996 exhibition, 'Linkage/Leakage’ curated by Kick Arts Inc., in Cairns and in also in 'ILAN PASIN: Torres Strait Art’ at the Cairns Regional Gallery in 1998. In 2001 his work was included in the exhibition “Gatherings, Contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art from Queensland, Australia” and it is from the accompanying Gatherings catalogue that Thaiday Jr states that he wants people “to look at my artwork and see it is unique and that it explains Torres Strait Islander culture and Christianity.” This entry is a stub.
