About the episode
Lindy Lee is one of Australia’s most successful, and revered contemporary artists. However, she wasn’t always the iconic, confident sculptor we know so well today. A child of Chinese migrants, Lindy grew up under the racism of the White Australia policy. It took Lindy many years, and many careers, to finally find her artistic confidence, but once she started down that path she never looked back. Having spent a lifetime building her toolkit and cultivating her curiosity, Lindy feels like she’s only now - in her 70’s - coming into her prime.
