About Mee Jey
Mee Jey is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice explores related issues of politics of immigration, ecology, and resources through immersive, interactive installations, performances, and community-engaged art projects. Her work often employs repetition as a visual and formal pattern using repurposed fabric and found materials to create points of conversation and contemplations on these issues.

Mee Jey’s art has been showcased in prestigious venues worldwide, including the Zabludowicz Collection in London (UK), the San Jose Museum of Quilt and Textiles in California, EVAC Gallery in Athens, Greece, as well as several other galleries in the US including the Pulitzer Arts Foundation, Bruno David Gallery, Laumeier Sculpture Park, Michigan State University and Auburn University. Known for provoking discussions on border policies, nature, and resources, Mee Jey has received accolades such as the Visionary Emerging Artist Award 2022 and the Mother Art Prize, including an International Residency in London for 2022-23.
