Sunday Lai is a multimedia artist working in performance, video, installation and painting. Lai graduated from the Academy of Visual Arts at Hong Kong Baptist University in 2009 and is currently an MFA candidate at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Keen to the latent city order, Lai creates work that is deeply rooted in performing with mundane objects — a practice that both reflects and challenges the norm of daily life. Being an artist is a means by which she vents and executes her desire to control. With a dash of playfulness, she tries to show different forms of urban anxiety through a series of interventions, hoping to find pleasure in resisting order and reality.
