Heiyi Tam (b. 1998) is a Hong Kong-born artist based in London. Her vibrant works combine memories, moments and flavours resulting in sensorial and emotional compositions and stories. Tam’s work is inspired by her childhood, memories, flavours, and everyday moments. She explores sensorial qualities of specific moments such as the bursts of sweetness from strawberries or the smell and textures of freshly cut grass. Born and raised in Hong Kong and moved to the UK when she was 15, the subtleties of the merging of East and West, through landscapes, cultures, and cuisines often seep into her practice. Her paintings are each distinguished by a story which is reflected by the corresponding titles, revealing glimpses of inspiration and flavours behind each painting.
