Elysha Rei

Elysha Rei is a Japanese Australian artist based in Magandjin / Brisbane, Australia. Her intricate paper-based works explore the intersections of memory, identity, and belonging through the language of paper. Specialising in highly detailed hand-cut designs and large scale site specific installations, Elysha transforms single sheets of paper into layered stories, bridging cultural histories and contemporary practice. Over the past two decades, her work has been commissioned, exhibited, and collected both nationally and internationally. She was the inaugural Executive Chair of Nikkei Australia between 2022 and 2025.
