In 2009, he founded the Alternative
Contemporary Art Studio (ACAS) in the

2013, after being a parochial vicar at Sacred
Heart Parish and holding a solo exhibition
Testimony of What Remains (2013) at the

practice investigates the community and
studio-based responses to changing religious and cultural circumstances, locations,

the lockdown, Dy has been arranging flowers as part of the project Arrange/Enliven
(2020–ongoing).
