Chia-Hui Lei is an animation director currently pursuing a master’s degree in animation in Estonia. Her work centers on stop-motion and cross-media creation, exploring the intersection of animation and traditional crafts. She is drawn to small-scale making—puppet crafting, papercutting, illustration, and the playful spirit of pretend play. With a deep curiosity for materials, she weaves together fabric, embroidery, paper, paint, and yarn to build tactile, poetic worlds where each material speaks its own language.
