INFO
London-based artist Lyndsay Martin explores the physical and emotional consequences of human relationships, employing a mixture of photography, ceramics, found objects and video installation. The mixed media pieces often portray frayed and faceless figures as they collide with idyllic patterns, textures and tableaux in order to articulate the intimate narratives of their relationships.
