Peihang BENOIT
Born in Taipei in 1984, Peihang has lived in Taiwan, the United States, the United Kingdom, and France. These experiences have shaped her sensitivity to living between places, to shifting scales of belonging, and to the fluidity of time. Working primarily in painting, she has recently expanded her practice into ceramics, using painted stone-like forms to extend gesture, surface, and color beyond the canvas and into space. This attentiveness to movement and in-betweenness also informs her role as a co-founder of oneATELIER a Paris-based non-profit supporting international women artists, where shared experience, critical exchange, and mutual support mirror the values that ground her studio practice.
Peihang holds a BA and MFA in Fine Art from National Taiwan Normal University and an MA from Chelsea College of Arts, London. She has received awards including the ChiMei Award, Chu Teh-Chun Award, and was a finalist of Hopper Prize (US) and Ashurst Emerging Artist Prize (UK). Her work has been exhibited at institutions and galleries such as Saatchi Gallery, Sundaram Tagore Gallery; Macau Art Museum, Museum of Tokyo University of the Arts, Chiayi Museum, and National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts, with solo exhibitions at espace temps (Paris), Aki Gallery (Taipei ), Yiri Arts, and TKG+Projects (Taïwan), with works in the permanent collection of Chimei Museum and Dib Bangkok Museum.
She currently lives and works in Paris.
