My name is Wink King Moe (b. 2000, Mandalay, Myanmar). I was raised in Singapore and come from Korean and Chinese ancestry. In 2019, I moved to London to pursue a fine arts education, graduating with First Class Honours in 2024. Since then, I have never stopped making.

My practice moves between clay, movement, oil painting, and installation, driven by an ongoing exploration of material, physical labour, and spatial tension. Although I exist on the shorter end of the biological spectrum, I am instinctively drawn to large, architectural-scale works…pieces that demand climbing, repetition, and a constant negotiation between body and structure. Much of this work unfolds through sustained physical movement, often accompanied by old Chinese folk songs and city pop, forming a quiet rhythm beneath the exertion.

I am deeply fascinated by deep-sea creatures and the abyss they inhabit. I return often to documentaries of the ocean floor, drawn to its vastness, obscurity, and the strange intelligence of life under extreme conditions. The awkward, resilient forms of these creatures inform my visual language and way of thinking. Their ability to survive pressure, darkness, and isolation resonates with me profoundly, shaping how I approach both my practice and my daily life.

At this stage, my work embraces not knowing- dissonance, instability, and spontaneity are not obstacles but essential conditions. I continue to define my practice through doing rather than resolving, allowing intuition and discipline to coexist without hierarchy. As of now, I am married to art; being an artist is not a role I perform, but a commitment I live by. It remains my only salvation.
