Sammy Lai

Sammy Lai was born in Hong Kong and now living in the UK. Sammy studied at Chelsea College of Art and received a Bachelor of Arts with Honours and completed a Master of Visual Art student at Hong Kong Baptist University, where he has been awarded UGC scholarship for postgraduate courses.

Sammy Lai's work encompasses a wide range of topics, views, and materials. Sculpture, photography, painting, childhood recollections, and theories are some of the mediums used. In numerous study lines, his works continue to observe, produce diverse and objective findings. Sammy has always been fascinated by environmental observation, meaning, artistic application, childhood recollections, and the concept of the third space. These have flowed through his previous works and are something he continues to explore in his artistic practice.
