Jing Pei is a textile artist and researcher based in New York. Her work explores the relationship between materials, the environment, and memories from her upbringing. With a background in environmental engineering, she brings a scientific perspective to her practice, incorporating environmental data and site-specific research to investigate pollution, restoration, and ecological change. Her process is grounded in handcraft and material experimentation, using fiber to make visible what is often unseen in environmental systems. Jing holds an MFA in Textiles and an AAS in Fashion Design from Parsons School of Design, and a bachelor's degree in Environmental Engineering from Tianjin University. She shares her work through exhibitions, workshops, and collaborative projects that center sustainability, ecological awareness, and material curiosity.
