Caring Creative: A closer look at local artist Michael Lam
Renowned for his groundbreaking work and creation of HSBC’s “Rainbow Lions” statues, Hong Kong-based artist and decorator Michael Lam is not only one of the city’s brightest artists, but is also a leading champion of LGBTQ rights in Hong Kong today.
Known for his generosity, Lam has donated countless artworks to auctions, galas and charities, with all proceeds being donated to support AIDS research, LGBTQ business equality and, of course, the ongoing battle for marriage equality.
Forever seeking new challenges within the art world, he has now shifted his focus towards home décor and is designing artworks that provide homes with a creative balance inspired by the classic precepts of feng shui. Michael’s commissioned artworks , meanwhile , remain much sought-after by both corporates and private collectors alike.
