Letters from a Distance by Peng Wei. 2013. Exhibited in Tina Keng Gallery, Taipei, Taiwan.

Currently based in Beijing, Peng was born in 1974 in Chengdu, China. She graduated from the Department of Eastern Culture and Art at the Nankai University with a BFA in Literature and an MFA in Philosophy. She created her first series, Stone, in 2000. In 2007, she became a guest painter at the Beijing Fine Art Academy.

Letters from a Distance, for which she was awarded the Signature Art Prize 2014 at the Singapore Art Museum, incorporates the letters of Western authors and artists. These substitute the traditional inscriptions found on classical Chinese paintings - Peng combines and alters traditional and contemporary materials, cultivating an intersection of culture that is nevertheless close to the heart.
