Jim Lambie
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jim Lambie (born 1964 in Glasgow, Scotland) is a contemporary visual artist, and was shortlisted for the 2005 Turner Prize with an installation called Mental Oyster. He lives in both Glasgow and New York, and also operates as a DJ. He was once part of a popular Glaswegian band called The Boy Hairdressers.
A common theme in his artistic practice is using brightly coloured tape, arranged into patterns around the floor of the gallery space, reconfiguring the shape of the room.
