Debuting Art during a Pandemic

Peisy Ting, Artist

08-Sep-20 15:00

Debuting Art during a Pandemic

The past year has been a period of reflection and introspection for many of us, and artist Peisy Ting is no exception. She was ready to debut her solo art exhibition earlier in the year, only to have it postponed for months due to the Movement Control Order. But in many ways, her exhibition, titled Transcendence – A Visual Exploration of Self, seems more fitting now than ever. We speak with Peisy about being a self-trained artist, and what she has learnt about making art through a decidedly difficult year.
