xinleh is an illustrator whose works capture the absurdity of childhood, exploring the intimacy of human relationships within fragmented realities. She is inspired by her cross-cultural background, born in Beijing, growing up in Singapore and living in Vancouver, British Columbia.
She works mainly in watercolour and markers, in small, intimate sizes that feel like a glimpse into another universe. She seeks to create multidimensional worlds that bring her characters together, while also highlighting their isolation, vulnerability and the strange beauty of everyday moments.
In her free time, she loves to write and play the piano. Her favourite game is Tetris.
Her artwork can be found in the private collections of Singapore, United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France and Canada.
