Weng Pixin was born in 1983 and grew up in sunny Singapore. As a child, Pixin’s father used to tell her stories—stories that reflected his curious nature. When Pixin began making art, she wanted to express that same curious nature in her semi-autobiographical comics.

Pixin’s first comic book, Sweet Time was published by Drawn & Quarterly in 2020. It compiles a collection of short-form comics she’d created between 2008 - 2017, capturing themes of loneliness, desire, disconnection and connectedness. Her second comic book, Let’s Not Talk Anymore (published by Drawn & Quarterly in 2021) was inspired by her once-fraught relationship with her mother, which led to Pixin’s interest to dive into the untold stories of figures along her matrilineal line.

Pixin currently divides her time between facilitating art workshops for children and working on her comics and art.
