Jessi Wong

Jessi Wong is a printmaker, collage and installation artist working with paper.

Her arts practice favours pattern and repetition referencing organic forms found in nature – stars, woodgrain, striated rocks.
Composition, colour, and layering play a structural role in her visual language. Combining woodblock, lino, collage and pen, her artworks challenge perceptions of replication and traditional printmaking.

Jessi is currently living and working in Melbourne, Australia.
