Lindy Lee: The Dark Of Absolute Freedom

Overview

Coming to significant prominence in the 1980s, Lindy Lee became an acclaimed artist within Australia. Currently living and working in Sydney, Lee’s work explores her Chinese heritage and the teachings of eastern religions such as Buddhism. Her work is highly meditative and conceptual. Though hard to decipher at first, Lee’s work is rewarding to viewers and have been critically praised since her early years.

A retrospective of Lee’s early work is taking place at the UQ Art Museum. The collection looks specifically at the early photocopy work and how her work shifted with her increased interest in Buddhism and Taoism. Also featured are some more recent works showcasing pyrographic techniques.

This exhibition will run until late February, 2015. Be sure to check it out early as there will be some special events taking place throughout September; head to the UQ Art Museum website for specific information on these events.
