Hello,


My name is Yiu Hei.  I swear I’m not as serious as the website copy makes me out to be!  

I’ll keep it simple here, I’d rather you come to your own conclusions about me by exploring this site.

I’m an artist exploring the themes of aging and decay through the mediums of tattoo, photography, painting, and garment modifications.

I aim to make things that you can form a relationship with, things that you want to grow old with, things you can redefine, repurpose, or recycle as you journey through life.  We aren’t stagnant beings, we grow wiser, our tastes change, our values shift, how we see something today is not how we saw it years ago.  I’d hope that those who acquire my creations form enough of a bond with them to keep them around through all of that.  

So, please, layer over my tattoos as years pass, cut up and paint my garments when they get old, and don’t treat my artwork with too much care!  

With love,
Yiu Hei
