Tiffany Wei is a Los Angeles–based Chinese-American interdisciplinary artist whose work blends digital illustration, ceramics, embroidery, and wearable art.
Drawing on themes of femininity and folklore, she creates delicate yet uncanny visual worlds where beauty and unease intertwine. Her practice moves between the ornamental and the eerie, transforming ethereal visions into tangible keepsakes that bridge the surreal and the everyday.
