Xinwei Che’s works evolve through different material states, embracing change, inviting viewers to contemplate uncertainty in a world that is on the brink of both crisis and transformation. She lives between her home-country, Singapore, and the rainy city of Vancouver, BC. She holds a BFA from Rhode Island School of Design (2015) and an MFA from Emily Carr University of Art & Design (2022).

She was awarded the National Arts Council of Singapore Scholarship for her BFA, and the Young Talent Programme Prize in 2017. She has exhibited and attended artist residencies internationally, including the Vermont Studio Centre, Taipei Artist Village, National Art Gallery of Kuala Lumpur, Esplanade Singapore, Richmond Art Gallery and Gorden Smith Gallery. She recently returned from a residency at Medalta, supported by the Gwen Strojich Fellowship, where she researched weather-responsive ceramic surfaces. 

Xinwei hosts collaborative workshops that expore negotiation, support, and communication through clay and water. She has also been a sessional instructor at Emily Carr University since 2023.
