Peisy Ting is a Kuala Lumpur-based artist whose emotionally charged paintings explore the dynamics of duality. With a strong background in visual communications and over 15 years of experience as an advertising art director, Peisy's work often centres around the interplay between structure and chaos, darkness and light, and strength and softness.
As a self-taught artist, Peisy's unique style is characterized by an intense colour palette, bold strokes, and a sense of space that creates a focal point. Her paintings draw on the viewer's emotions, inviting them to experience the work on a deeper level. One common feedback she receives from her viewers and buyers is that her paintings "grow on them" over time, as the emotional impact of her work becomes more apparent with repeated viewing.
Peisy has exhibited her work in galleries and exhibitions worldwide, including Seoul, London, Bangkok, and Miami, where she has received critical acclaim for her unique vision and artistic style. For Peisy, art is a form of communication that transcends cultural and linguistic barriers, representing people across time and place. Through her paintings, she seeks to create a universal language of freedom and expression that speaks to the heart and soul of the viewer.
"To me, art is a 'visual voice'. It acts as a voice for the voiceless. It's a form of communication that crosses cultural and linguistic barriers, representing people across time and place – a voice of freedom and expression. "
