Lydia Santix is a multimedia artist with a specialization in sculpture and multimedia arts. Lydia is located in Toronto, Canada and has formal art training from York University in Toronto. Their work is fascinated with botany, plant life and the human form. It plays with the relationship that art and nature have in harmony and contrast.

Lydia’s work strives to understand what it means to take up space. Their work explores diversity, human expression, disability, queerness, humanity, and emotionality through bold shapes and forms. Lydia explores discomfort and the magnetism of human expression to create opportunities for discussion on topics such as representation and identity.

Lydia has a diverse style that plays with representational and abstracted forms. The use of bold colour choices, and dynamic multimedia combinations are common in their artwork. Lydia works in many mediums including ceramics, metalwork, stone carving, painting, wood carving, wood burning, resin casting, illustration, foam carving, and installation art.

Lydia is grateful for the collaborators, photographers, programmers, and artists who have put their time and effort into the creation of this website.
