Lindy Lee b. 1954

  • Artist (Painter),
  • Artist (Installation Artist),
  • Artist (Sculptor)
Lindy Lee is an Australian artist of Chinese heritage. Her art began with a critique of the reproductions of European art that give Australians a decidedly second hand understanding of their place in the world. This has evolved via a fresh appreciation of her Chinese heritage to a Buddhist understanding of the place of art and humanity in the universe.
