Lyndl Hall is currently pursuing a Master of Applied Arts at Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver. She holds a BFA in Studio Arts from Concordia University, Montreal, with concentration in textiles and drawing.

Lyndl's artwork explores the drawn line and the relationships between static images that create narrative or mood. Her work deals with themes of absurdity, nostalgia and fairy tale through mediums as varied as embroidery, ink, papermaking, pencil, pigment-based paint, print, and watercolors.

In addition to exhibiting her work internationally, Lyndl has been involved in the development of electronic paper in collaboration with the MIT Media Lab and Hexagram/XS Labs, where she is a research affiliate. She is also involved in researching the composition and preservation of pigments in the rock art of the San bushmen in South Africa.
