Heidi Wong Author

Heidi Wong is a poet and artist who grew up between Beijing, Hong Kong, and New York.

While specializing in expressionistic oil painting and hyper-realistic digital art, Heidi’s poetry is equally packed with intensity and boldness. Since posting her work on social media at 15 years old, she has developed a unique voice composed of the stark juxtaposition between surreal and macabre imagery with intimate and beautiful language.

Her third collection, Turning to Wallpaper, focuses on the idea of transcendence—transcending the silenced and demonized female body, conceptions of femininity and masculinity, tradition, and even nation in order to ultimately reconcile with and escape one’s past.
