Tufting Artist

Trained in architecture, Zeyu Cheng currently works in textile art. Tufted tapestries allowed her to detach herself from the geometric confines of contemporary architecture and take refuge in a universe inspired by the psychedelic aesthetic of the 70s, giving free rein to youthful creativity.

Most of the pieces she makes are completely unique, featuring free forms, bright colors, and original motifs. She has had the opportunity to collaborate with clients such as Adidas, Jaded London, LYCHEE & FRIENDS, and Fashion Grunge magazine.
