Mary Lum (born 1951) is an American visual artist whose paintings, collages and works on paper reference the urban environment, architectural forms and systems.[1] Critic John Yau writes, "Mary Lum’s paintings on paper are based on collages, which are made from things she uses or encounters in her everyday life as well as photographs she takes of the places she visits.
