Mich Maroney has always known what she wanted. As a little girl, she loved painting and told her family she was going to be an artist. “I was so young that I didn’t even know what it meant,” she says. “But my dad had this huge book on art and suddenly I knew, yes, this is what I’m going to do.”
Maroney, 61, was born in Hong Kong to a British father and a Macanese mother. When she was eight, the family moved to London, where she later worked as a visual artist and supported herself with administrative jobs.
