Born in 2001, Michael Lye is an Asian-Australian artist from  Narrm / Melbourne, Australia, now practicing in London, UK. Working and exploring multiple mediums his work discusses race, philosophical and scientific explorations through the use of playfully abstract and minimalistic formations. Either blissfully colourful or grotesquely visceral, Lye builds upon his own position as a multi-race artist to discuss the background stereotypes of society towards minorities. His sometimes stark and baron concepts drive his work towards the realm of existentialism, embodying sides of the social and political whilst more specifically the environmental impacts of climate change. These directives follow through Lye’s own practical discussion of the virtual and analog, emotional and scientific as a dual dialogue to the fabric of our reality. Lye is currently undertaking a Masters of Contemporary Art Practice at the Royal College of Art, London, UK.
