Born to Malaysian-Chinese parents in the month of the lion / the year of the dog, Pey Chi 佩绮 (she/her) is a multi-disciplinary artist working and playing out of Naarm. Inspired by all things kitsch ’n’ cute, she hand-builds ceramic pots and mugs, hand-pokes tattoos and hand-draws silly pictures, amongst other things. Her creative practice has been greatly influenced by Topical Steroid Withdrawal, causing her to fall chronically ill since 2014 and motivating her to create work that brings herself joy, and others too.
