Freeman Lam

Freeman Lam is a Canadian-born Chinese artist who works mainly with textiles exploring Traditional Chinese designs and aesthetics in contemporary fashion. For Freeman, textile art provides him the avenue to understand his ethnic identity within a predominantly White-European society. With a background in Interdisciplinary Design from Langara College and Early Childhood Education from Capilano University, Freeman is interested in exploring art as a point of connection which generates creativity and life within community. Throughout his studies at Regent College, Freeman has intentionally wrestled with how the biblical narrative invites us to consider our lived experiences, in particular our ethnic and cultural experiences, as threads which Christ stitches within his grand story.
