Born in Japan and raised in Malaysia, Yoshimi Teh is a printmaker currently living and working in Honolulu. Yoshimi's primary practice of stone lithography explores traditional and non-traditional methodologies that are innovative and experimental. Much of Yoshimi's work recalls her childhood interest in science, but is also reflective of her experiences with East/West culture. Often playful, yet mindful of tradition, Yoshimi's prints are explorations of perception and conception, intention and un-intention, self and non-self. Yoshimi Teh is a tireless studio devotee whom presently works as a teaching assistant and Printmaking Lab Supervisor at the University of Hawai`i Department of Art and Art History where she received a BA in Art History while focusing in printmaking and studio art.
