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 and it is from these stories that Thaiday Jr draws his inspiration, re-interpreting them into his drawings, sculptures and lino prints.
