Sculpture
“Sculpture is for the Brave—who creates it, exhibits it, and collects it. It's a medium that, I believe, deeply connects to the viewer as it stands in space with them, taking up the same air.”

Digital Artwork
Lydia observed and played with digital interactions from early experiences playing video games such as Sims 3. Her process reminds us how our digital identities influence physical reality and vice versa. Combined with storytelling from ancient history and scientific research, her subject matter is always evolving.

“I view my works on paper as 2D sculptures, inspired by the DNA of my digital and physical artwork.”

Figurative Works
Lydia has been classically trained in sculpture since the age of sixteen. This background is rare among contemporary sculptors, especially those who seamlessly blend classical and contemporary techniques. Her unique approach showcases her skill and reflects her innovative spirit, inviting viewers to explore the intersection of tradition and modernity in her work.
“Like Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth, she’s able to sculpt classically but chooses abstraction and has done so in a unique and truly beautiful way.”
- Mica Bowman, Bowman Sculpture
Quote from the feature in The Wick Culture
