About Cathleen Lau

Lau is a Hong Kong-based artist who is devoted to developing her artworks with new concepts in sculpting space. She engages in producing sculpture complemented by large scale cross-media installations. She graduated from the Hong Kong Art School (RMIT), majoring in sculpture. Her works explore the possibility of breaking through the inertia of sculpting materials. She is interested in constantly inventing “sustainable and renewable” substances. She is now molding and carving wood with inverted material that is in the form of sawdust, re-sculpting space with particular attention to materials and atmosphere. She is good at creating mixed-media sculptures and installations with different media carvings, in the melting pot of new materials, light and shadow, to present conceivable atmospheres that integrate the audience.

Lau received Reaching Out Scholarship to visit Japan and experience its culture. Her work is awarded Directors Choice Award 2018 Human Rights Art Prize, and also exhibited in Affordable Art Fair Young Talent 2018. In 2016, she was awarded with Selected Artwork Prize in Taipei Art Free Fair, and The Best Art Work (Sculpture) in 2015. Her works have been exhibited in Switzerland, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau.
