Lambie’s playful and imaginative work in collage, installation and sculpture
creates an immediate visual impact and shows his interest in the psychology of
space and colour. Using materials such as glitter, paint, mirror and vinyl
tape, he assembles, alters and embellishes rooms and ordinary objects such as
chairs, clothes, doors and posters. Lambie’s work reflects his everyday
surroundings and makes sharp-eyed references to aspects of contemporary society
whilst letting us get close to his working processes and experiments carried
out in his studio.
Techniques:
His work
is developed in paintings, mostly watercolours.
Exhibitions:
He was shortlisted for the 2005 Turner Prize
with an installation called Mental Oyster.

In his own words:
"I'm an artist: I drip paint," says Lambie. He's not given to analysis.
