Pip Lewi is an artist and casual voyeur based in Boorloo (Perth, Western Australia) on unceded Whadjuk Noongar boodjar. They seek playful disruptions in the mundane landscape, using portable materials and processes to document everyday ephemera. Their practice considers reframing the flâneur in contemporary Australiana; exploring curious narratives and smirking at visual puns.

Their passions include but are not limited to: public transport, wheelie bin etiquette, Coles little shop, redback spiders, astroturf vs lawn debates, bath spiritualism and ASMR, to name a few. Pip Lewi also goes by Pipe sometimes.
