Lynn Lu is a visual artist whose research-led practice emerges from her interests in context and site specificity, participation and collaboration, and the poetics of absurdity.

Her current research investigates the figure of the Crone and female ageing to subvert and deepen the ways we collectively understand and experience menopause. She is also learning pole dance to repurpose a craft historically designed for male titillation, for strength-training and acrobatics to combat menopausal ailments like osteoporosis, heart disease, and brain fog, and to explore feminine resilience and sensuality in post-reproductive life.
